Letâs be honest. Sometimes you want dessert, but you donât want to cook. You want something sweet, icy, and low effortâa recipe thatâs basically a chill personality test.
Enter: Sorbet Delite â a tropical miracle made from just two ingredients (plus a little patience and maybe a spoon you donât want to share with anyone else).
đ Ingredients
- Pineapple â canned or fresh (no judgment here)
- Citroen juice â yes, fancy lemon juice, or just regular lemon if youâre not feeling extra
đ§ Tools Youâll Need
- A blender
- An ice cream machine or whatever frozen treat mixer thing youâve got
- A freezer
- A spoon (because… taste tests)
- Your brain (it helps)
đ The Sorbet Steps (a.k.a. The Path to Frozen Bliss)
Step 1: Cool the Pineapple
Grab your pineapple and toss it in the freezer for a night or two. If it’s canned, you can just throw the whole can in there like a rebel. If itâs fresh, cube it up and freeze it in a container. Either way, chill that fruit like itâs on summer vacation.
Step 2: Peel or Pop
If you’re going canned, just open it and pour the pineapple and juice straight into your blender. If you’re going freshâpeel, chop, and toss it in. Pineapple juice optional but very welcome.
Step 3: Add the Zing
Add a squirt (or two) of citroen juice. This adds a nice citrus kick that balances the sweetness. No need to be preciseâsqueeze with your heart.
Step 4: Blend and Taste
Blend for about 20 seconds. Then grab your spoon, dip it in, and taste the magic. If itâs not sweet enough for your taste buds, you can add sugar. But honestly? Itâs pretty delightful as-is.
Step 5: Ice It Up
Pour your blended mixture into your ice cream machine or sorbet mixer and let it churn into a dreamy, icy texture. If you donât have one, a strong stirring hand and some patience will do.
Step 6: Freeze Like a Pro
Once itâs got that creamy, smooth sorbet vibe, scoop it into a container and freeze it for 5â6 hours, or overnight if you have the willpower. (I never do.)
Step 7: Distract Yourself
Clean the kitchen. Scroll your phone. Donât open the freezer every 10 minutes. (Okay, maybe once.)
Step 8: Scoop, Serve, Slay
Once itâs frozen to perfection, scoop it into bowls and plate it like youâre on The Great British Freezing-Off. Bonus points for adding mint leaves or a tiny umbrella.
Step 9: Enjoy & Brag
You did it. You made sorbet with just TWO ingredients. Pat yourself on the back, send a humble-brag group chat message, and enjoy every bite.
đĄ Pro Tip:
Want to make this even fancier? Try mixing in a little fresh ginger, mint, or coconut milk next time. But honestly, this two-ingredient classic holds up strong on its own.
