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.
