Ingredients:

• 3 cups mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries), fresh or frozen

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

• 1/4 cup water

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for added brightness)

• A pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Berries:

• If you're using fresh berries, wash and hull them. If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly.

2. Blend the Berries:

• Place the mixed berries in a blender or food processor. Add the granulated sugar, water, lemon juice (if using), and a pinch of salt.

3. Blend Until Smooth:

• Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and all the ingredients are well combined.

4. Taste and Adjust:

• Taste the sorbet mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if needed, blending again to combine.

5. Strain (Optional):

• If you prefer a smoother sorbet, you can strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds. This step is optional.

6. Chill:

• Pour the sorbet mixture into a container with a lid and refrigerate it for about 2-3 hours, or until it's thoroughly chilled.

7. Freeze:

• Transfer the chilled sorbet mixture to an ice cream maker and churn it according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.

8. Serve or Store:

• You can serve the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve consistency, or transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours for a firmer texture.

9. Enjoy:

• Scoop the Vegan Mixed Berry Sorbet into bowls or cones and enjoy the refreshing and fruity flavors!

This Vegan Mixed Berry Sorbet is a delightful and dairy-free dessert that's perfect for cooling down on a hot day or as a refreshing finale to any meal. Customize it with your favorite mix of berries for a personalized twist!
