This sorbet is so easy to make and requires only three ingredients – fresh (or frozen) sweet cherries, honey and lemon juice. My Cherry Sorbet is sweet, silky and dairy-free; a great treat to cool down on a hot summer afternoon.
To start, wash and pit 4 generous cups of sweet cherries. Frozen cherries work too, if you can’t find fresh fruit. Add the cherries to a food processor along with ¼ cup of local honey and the juice of half a lemon. Puree the ingredients until smooth.
Pour the sorbet mixture into an ice cream machine and churn for 15-20 minutes or until thick. Eat immediately or pour the sorbet into a 9×3” metal loaf pan, cover with foil and freeze until ready to serve. This recipe makes 4-6 servings.
