Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Refreshing Strawberry Lime Sherbet.
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, blend together white sugar, milk (if desired), and fresh lime juice until the sugar completely dissolves.
Step 2
Next, fold in the mashed strawberries, ensuring a harmonious blend.
Step 3
In a separate bowl—preferably glass, metal, or ceramic—whip the egg white until it forms stiff peaks.
Step 4
Gently incorporate the beaten egg white into the strawberry-lime mixture, creating a light and airy texture.
Step 5
Transfer this delightful concoction into a freezer-safe container, sealing it tightly with plastic wrap to lock in freshness.
Step 6
Place the container in the freezer for about 2 hours, or until it’s nearly firm.
Step 7
Once chilled, remove it from the freezer and give it a good stir to break up any icy chunks.
Step 8
Return the container to the freezer for an additional 3 hours, stirring once every hour to maintain a smooth consistency.
Step 9
Finally, allow the sherbet to freeze completely, which may take up to 8 hours or even overnight, resulting in a refreshing treat that’s perfect for warm days.
Step 10
Enjoy the vibrant flavors of strawberry and lime in every scoop!.
