🥣 Equipment Needed:

- Silicone spatula
- Freezer-safe airtight container
👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Mango
If you’re using fresh mangoes, start by peeling and cubing 3 large ripe fruits. Arrange the cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze them for at least 4–6 hours—or preferably overnight—until they’re completely solid.
Step 2: Blend Everything Together
Next, place the frozen mango chunks into a high-speed blender or food processor. Add honey or maple syrup (if using), lime juice, and water (or coconut water). Begin blending slowly and gradually increase the speed. As the mixture thickens, pause occasionally to scrape down the sides. If it becomes too thick, simply add another tablespoon of liquid to help it along.
Step 3: Taste and Tweak
Once your mixture is smooth, give it a quick taste. Need more sweetness? Add a bit more honey or syrup. Want more brightness? Squeeze in some extra lime juice. A tiny pinch of salt can also enhance the flavor and balance the sweetness beautifully.
Step 4: Freeze or Serve Immediately
You now have two options. For a soft-serve texture, scoop the sorbet straight from the blender and serve it right away. On the other hand, if you prefer a firmer texture, transfer it into a freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze it for 1–2 hours. Once firm, scoop and enjoy!
đź“ť Storage Tips
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one month. Before serving again, allow the sorbet to sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes so it softens just enough to scoop.
đź’ˇ Tasty Variations:
- Creamy Coconut Twist: Use full-fat coconut milk instead of water for a richer, tropical flavor.
- Sweet & Spicy: Add a pinch of chili powder or TajĂn for a bold, spicy-sweet combo.
- Minty Fresh: Blend in a few fresh mint leaves to give your sorbet a cooling herbal note.
