Fresh Strawberry/Raspberry Sorbet

This rich & colorful strawberry/Raspberry sorbet is a perfect treat on a hot spring’s day.  It has a wonderfully light and refreshing flavor with a grainy consistency and  very  simple dessert to make at home; just mixing together freezing fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice. I have used fresh strawberry and raspberry for this recipe; you can use the frozen fruits.

Ingredients:

1 cups water

1 cup sugar
2 pounds of strawberry

1 pounds of raspberry
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup fresh orange juice

2 tbl spoon rum (optional)

Directions:

1. Put water and sugar in heavy saucepan over high heat until sugar dissolves. Boil 5 minutes. Leave it to cool.
2. Puree berries in food processor until smooth. Add the puree , orange and lemon juices,rum to cool sugar syrup; stir to blend. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.
3.  If you are making the sorbet in ice-cream maker process strawberry/raspberry mixture in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions or place mixture in shallow container and freeze, stirring every hour until set, about 6 hours.
