Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup of sugar (or alternative sweetener)
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of water
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Rinse fresh blueberries or use frozen blueberries directly.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water. Blend until smooth.
- Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed, adding more sugar if desired.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow dish or freezer-safe container.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours, scraping the sorbet with a fork every hour to prevent large ice crystals from forming.
- Once frozen, fluff the sorbet with a fork and serve immediately. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
- For a creamier texture, add a small amount of coconut milk or almond milk.
- Frozen blueberries work perfectly and make this recipe even easier to prepare.
- You can substitute sugar with natural sweeteners like honey or agave syrup.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a few mint leaves during the blending process.
