Mango Sorbet

Make sure your ice cream bowl is completely frozen before beginning to make the sorbet. It is always important to do that before making any ice cream, or sorbet.

Make the simple syrup. To a sauce pan, add the sugar and water, and bring it to a boil, stirring along the way. Once it boils, lower heat and bring it to a simmer and cook until all of the sugar dissolves, roughly 5 minutes or so.

Remove the pan from the heat, and set it aside to cool to room temperature.

Add the lemon juice and zest to the cooled simple syrup, and give it a nice stir.

Add the simple syrup and the mango juice to the bowl, and turn on the ice cream maker, stirring for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sorbet firms up.

Return the bowl to the freezer, and let the sorbet harden, roughly 30 minutes.

Serve in cones or bowls.

The results are a homemade sorbet that has the perfect texture, a great sweetness and flavor from the mango juice, and a bunch of happy people. Enjoy!
