- 4 cups blackberries (fresh is best, but you can use frozen)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cups water
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Start by preparing the blackberries. Rinse them under cold water and remove any stems or leaves. Pat them dry gently with a paper towel.
Toss in the blackberries, a drizzle of lemon juice, water, and sugar into the blender
Place a fine-mesh sieve over a bowl and strain the blackberry puree through the sieve, using the back of a spoon to press the mixture through. This will remove any seeds or pulp, leaving you with a smooth sorbet base.
Place the mixture in the refrigerator till it is chilled.
Transfer the mixture to the chilled container of your ice cream maker and make the sorbet as per the manufacturer's instructions.
You can start eating your sorbet immediately or keep it in the freezer for a couple of hours to firm it up. It comes out a gorgeous bright purple color ready to satisfy your sweet tooth on a hot day
