  • About

This refreshing sherbet is fabulous to have on hand during summer as a light dessert or a zingy addition to a vodka cocktail. As a dessert, I like to serve it in glasses with mangosteen segments, champagne melon and watermelon balls.

Ingredients

  • 1.1 litres fresh watermelon juice (blended from chopped fruit)
  • 50 ml fresh lime juice, strained
  • 50

Method

Mix the ingredients together in a bowl until combined. Pour into a shallow tray and freeze for 6 hours or overnight. Don’t let it sit in the freezer for too long or it will become too icy.

To serve, flake the sherbet with a fork into serving glasses or over fresh melon balls.
