- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1.5 cups Whole milk

In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh fruit puree, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved. This may take about 2-3 minutes.

Gradually whisk in the whole milk and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding a little more sugar if necessary, or add more lemon juice for additional tanginess.

Step 6
Once the sherbet reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it into an airtight, freezer-safe container.
