Method
Preparation
Prepare the Fruit
Wash the fresh fruit thoroughly. If using strawberries, remove the stems. For mangoes, peel and chop the flesh. For lemons, you'll be using the juice.
Make the Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Blend the Base
In a blender, combine the prepared fruit, cooled simple syrup, lemon juice, and any optional flavorings. Blend until smooth and well combined.
Chill and Freeze
Chill the Mixture
Pour the blended mixture into a bowl or container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to enhance the flavor.
Freeze the Sorbet
Transfer the chilled mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze for about 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals.
Serving
Serve the Sorbet
Once the sorbet is frozen to your desired consistency, scoop it into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
