Recipe Summary
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 0 minutes (freeze for at least 4 hours)
Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes
Servings: 4-6
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 4 cups ripe mangoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut, for garnish
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved completely to form a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- In a blender, add the cubed mangoes, lime juice, and salt. Pour the cooled simple syrup over the mango mixture.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. You want a luscious consistency that dances on your taste buds.
- Pour the mango mixture into a shallow dish or a loaf pan, then place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture every hour for the first 3 hours to ensure it freezes evenly.
- After the fourth hour, the sorbet should be perfectly frozen. Scoop it into sleek glass bowls, and garnish with fresh mango cubes and a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
Helpful Tips
For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a teaspoon of fresh ginger juice to the mango mixture before blending. If you prefer a creamier texture, a splash of coconut milk can make this sorbet even more delightful.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftover sorbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften slightly.
Ingredient Substitutions
If you can’t find fresh mangoes, frozen mango chunks work just as well. Feel free to reduce the sugar if your mangoes are particularly sweet.
Pairings
This Mango Madness Sorbet pairs beautifully with a light coconut milk panna cotta or a fresh fruit salad. For drinks, try serving it alongside a chilled glass of mango juice or a tropical smoothie.
