homemade lime sorbet

Cheers to the end of summer! Homemade sorbet is about to change your life. It’s fresh, pure, and completely elevates summer dessert. We love our Breville Smart Scoop for making refreshing sorbet that we enjoy every night.

The automatic functionality of the Breville makes it super simple to use. I was honestly shocked at how easy it was to operate.  Just pick your favorite ingredients and it does the rest. It’s the first ice cream maker to automatically sense the hardness of the mixture based on your selection, and makes the perfect batch! Sorbet has become our go-to dessert this summer.

It’s also the best ice cream maker. You can set it and forget it, thanks to the timer and keep-cool setting. The machine keeps churning and chilling the contents until you’re ready to scoop it out. Perfect for a busy mom, especially if we have a few friends over!

Our favorite recipe so far is this Coconut Lime Sorbert.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS COCONUT AND LIME SORBET:

Start out by pre-cooling the ice cream maker. While it’s getting ready, blend up the cream of coconut, coconut water, lime juice, and lime zest in a blender.

Once The Smart Scoop is chilled, pour in your ingredients, and start the sorbet-making process!

handy tools to make this coconut lime sorbet very easily:

• blender – blends so smoothly, easy to clean, slim design to minimize room on counter
• ice cream scoop – nonstick, anti-freeze, heavy duty

About an hour later, this yummy dessert is ready for family & friends. We love it with a wedge of lime, but it’s also delectable with some pineapple.
