Start by peeling and pitting the ripe mangoes. Cut the mango flesh into chunks and add them to a blender or food processor.
Add the granulated sugar and lime juice to the blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and no mango chunks remain.
Pour the mango puree through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove any fibrous bits for a smoother texture.
Stir in the whole milk, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt into the mango mixture. Mix well until it is fully combined.
If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the prepared ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This typically takes about 25-30 minutes.
If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container. Cover tightly with a lid or plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
For the no-ice-cream-maker method: Remove the container from the freezer every 30 minutes and whisk vigorously to break up ice crystals, or use a handheld electric mixer. Repeat this process for about 2-3 hours until it has a creamy, scoopable texture.
Scoop the mango sherbet into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh mango slices or mint leaves if desired.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
