Ingredients
- 3 cups Fresh raspberries
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Water
- 0.33 cup Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, water, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture forms a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 2
While the simple syrup cools, place the fresh raspberries in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
Step 3
Strain the raspberry puree through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove the seeds. Discard the seeds.
Step 4
Stir the cooled simple syrup, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and lemon zest into the raspberry puree until fully combined.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until the sorbet reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 6
Transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for 2-4 hours, or until firm.
Step 7
Scoop and serve the Raspberry Lemonade Sorbet immediately, garnishing with fresh raspberries or a slice of lemon if desired.
