Ingredients

  • 3 pieces Ripe mangoes
  • 3 tablespoons Lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon Lime zest
  • 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 tablespoons Light corn syrup or honey
  • 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mangoes, remove the pits, and cut the flesh into chunks. Add the mango chunks to a blender or food processor.

Step 2

In a small pot, combine the water and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is fully dissolved to create a simple syrup. Let it cool to room temperature.

Step 3

Add the lime juice, lime zest, light corn syrup (or honey), and a pinch of salt to the blender with the mango chunks.

Step 4

Pour the cooled simple syrup into the blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides if necessary.

Step 5

Taste the mixture to check the balance of sweetness and tartness. Adjust with a little more lime juice or sugar, if desired.

Step 6

Strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove any fibrous pieces or pulp (optional, but results in a smoother sorbet).

Step 7

Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 20-25 minutes, or until it reaches a thick, creamy consistency.

Step 8

Transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-4 hours to firm up before serving.

Step 9

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for the first 2-3 hours to prevent ice crystals from forming, then let it freeze completely.

Step 10

Serve the sorbet in bowls or cones and garnish with additional lime zest or a slice of lime, if desired.
