2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup fresh raspberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons vodka (optional)

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: agave syrup

Honey is a natural sweetener that adds flavor.

1

In a saucepan, combine the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat until the berries start to release their juices and the sugar has dissolved, stirring occasionally. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

2

Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

3

Once cooled, transfer the berry mixture to a blender or food processor.

4

Add the lemon juice and vodka (if using). Blend until smooth.

5

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or solids.

6

Pour the strained mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

7

Transfer the sorbet to a lidded container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours, or until firm.
