  • Yield

    Makes about 5 cups

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
4 cups frozen raspberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. In a small saucepan over moderate heat, combine the sugar with 1 cup water and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, to dissolve the sugar. Remove the syrup from the heat and let cool completely.

    Step 2

    2. In a blender or food processor, combine the berries with 1/2 cup water and blend until smooth (add a bit more water, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, as needed to keep the mixture smooth). Combine the fruit purée, cooled syrup, and lemon juice and stir to combine.

    Step 3

    3. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pack the sorbet into containers, cover, and freeze for 3 to 4 hours before serving.
