Ingredients

How to Make strawberry Mango Sorbet in the Blender
Step 1: Load Your Blender
Add the frozen strawberries, frozen mango chunks, maple syrup (or honey), lime juice, cold water, and a pinch of sea salt to your blender pitcher.
Step 2: Blend Until Smooth
Begin blending on low speed, slowly increasing to high. Use a tamper or pause to scrape down the sides as needed. Blend for 1–2 minutes, adding more water (1 tablespoon at a time) only if needed to get everything moving.
Step 3: Check Texture & Adjust
Taste the sorbet; adjust sweetness or lime juice if desired. Blend again for 20–30 seconds, until perfectly creamy and thick.
Step 4: Serve or Freeze
Scoop straight into bowls for a soft-serve-style treat, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1–2 hours for a firmer, scoopable sorbet.
Notes
- Using frozen fruit is key to achieving that perfect sorbet texture—don’t substitute with fresh unless you plan to freeze before serving.
- Taste your fruit before blending; sweeter fruit needs less added sweetener.
- High-speed blenders make the creamiest sorbet, but any strong blender works; just blend in short bursts to avoid overheating.
Variations
- Berry Burst: Swap half the mango for frozen blueberries or raspberries.
- Coconut Cream: Replace water with coconut milk for a creamy, tropical twist.
- Spicy Mango: Add a pinch of chili powder or a dash of cayenne for a spicy kick.
Required Equipment
- High-speed blender or food processor
- Rubber spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Freezer-safe container (if storing)
Storage & Shelf Life
Store leftover sorbet in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to 2 weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before scooping for the best texture.
Pairings & Serving Suggestions
- Top with fresh mint leaves and sliced strawberries for an extra pop of color.
- Serve alongside vanilla pound cake or coconut shortbread cookies for a dreamy dessert trio.
- Scoop into glasses and add sparkling water for an instant fruity sorbet float.
Pro Tips
- Cut fruit into small chunks before freezing to help your blender process more easily.
- For the creamiest result, freeze sorbet in a shallow container and stir halfway through freezing.
- If your blender struggles, add a tablespoon of cold water at a time and use the tamper to help blend evenly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen?
You’ll want to use frozen fruit for the best texture, but if you only have fresh, cube and freeze it for several hours before blending.
Is this recipe refined sugar-free?
Yes! Using maple syrup or honey means you can skip refined sugars. For a vegan version, stick with maple syrup or agave.
Can I double this recipe?
Absolutely—just make sure your blender can handle the increased volume, and you may need to blend in batches if necessary.
