Cherry Sorbet Recipe
Create a refreshing cherry sorbet that’s perfect for the heat of summer.
This is one of those simple recipes that’ll be a smash hit with family and friends. A sweet, cool dessert that showcases delicious cherries. Be sure to use ripe berries rather than morello cherries in a jar or can. The processed version doesn’t provide as much flavour or colour.
How to make cherry sorbet without an ice cream maker
If you don’t have an ice cream machine you can still make this dessert. Simply add the sorbet straight to the freezer instead of churning. After half an hour, remove and whisk until smooth, then continue freezing. If you have time, remove the sorbet 2-3 more times every half hour and whisk. This will make a less icy textured sorbet.
