This easy dessert recipe is packed with berry flavor. Using two varieties of fresh berries and cherry juice gives you a bold combination.

Serve this at your next outdoor event as a classy treat anytime of the year.

I love that, unlike ice cream, sorbets are not dairy based.

They are packed with fruit and frozen to perfection and the consistency you get is more like a packed down slush or a popsicle.

Since I did not have an ice cream maker on hand I had to do a little improvising. To achieve the smooth texture I actually used my Blendtec, but I will give you a few other ways to get the smooth texture that do not even require the use of a machine!

What is the difference between sorbet and ice cream?

The difference between sorbet and ice cream is the ingredients.

Sorbets are made of fruit, water, and sugar with an ice like texture. Ice cream is made with milk or cream giving it that creamy texture.

Is sorbet better for you than ice cream?

No. Sorbets tend to have more sugar than ice cream recipes. What it breaks down to is that they are both ok, in moderation.

One suggestion I have is not to limit yourself with the types of berries you use. We’ve tried a variety of different combinations and love each one. Mix in some cherries or even blueberries.

How to make sorbet without an ice cream maker:

My personal favorite way to make sorbet is with the freeze and whisk method. All you need is a good freezer container like this one and a steady hand.

  1. Pour your sorbet base into an air tight container.
  2. Place into the freezer.
  3. Remove and whisk every 20 minutes for the first two hours. Freeze solid.

    I used all raspberries instead of a strawberry/raspberry mix and it turned out delicious. Don’t toss the pulp, it made the most delicious jam! No pectin needed, either!

      I’m going to have to try all raspberries! That sounds incredible.

      And great idea with the pulp!

    Oh lala this looks yummy, I really want to try this for the summer ~ one question tho, when you stir in the fruit, wouldn’t I need to mash them first or out them through a blender?
