Ingredients:
- 2 medium organic lemons
- 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat canned coconut milk
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup or raw honey
Instructions:
- Prepare the Lemons:
- Wash the lemons thoroughly and cut off the ends. If using a high-speed blender, proceed to the next step. If not, see the notes below for additional instructions.
- Blend the Ingredients:
- Add the whole lemons to a high-speed blender along with the coconut milk and maple syrup or honey.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust by adding more lemon or sweetener if desired.
- Freeze the Mixture:
- Pour the blended mixture into ice cube molds and place them in the freezer until completely frozen.
- Make the Sorbet:
- Once frozen, remove the ice cubes from the molds and add them to a high-speed blender.
- Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy sorbet consistency. If the cubes are too hard to blend, let them soften slightly before blending, or add a little bit of hot water to help them blend.
- Serve:
- Scoop the sorbet into bowls or glasses and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes:
- Without a High-Speed Blender:
- Zest the lemons and add the zest to the blender.
- Cut off any remaining lemon skin and remove the seeds before adding the lemon flesh to the blender.
- Blending Tips:
- If the frozen ice cubes aren’t blending well, let them soften for a few minutes before blending. Adding a small amount of hot water can also help facilitate blending.
Enjoy this refreshing and healthy lemon sorbet, a simple yet delightful treat that’s perfect for any occasion!
