Print Recipe

By Malini Serves: 4 Prep Time: 30 m Cooking Time: 10 m

Ingredients

• 1 lime
• 2 1/3 cups confectioners' sugar
• 2 cups water
• 1 1/2 tablespoons rum (optional)
• 3 ripe mangoes, peeled, seeded, and cut into cubes

Instructions

1

Using a vegetable peeler, strip the lime zest into long strands.

2

In a saucepan, combine confectioners' sugar, water, and lime zest. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes, then chill in the refrigerator until cold (about 1 hour). Strain out the lime zest and stir in the rum, if using.

3

Puree mango cubes in a blender until completely smooth, then refrigerate until cold.

4

Mix the cold mango puree with the chilled lime syrup. Pour into your ice cream maker and churn until a soft-serve texture forms, about 20 minutes, following manufacturer instructions.

5

Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 2 hours, before scooping and serving.

Notes

Tips:
Ensure all the components—the mango puree and the lime syrup—are thoroughly chilled before combining in the ice cream maker. This is key for achieving smooth, scoopable sorbet., Omit the rum for an alcohol-free version, or experiment with other spirits like tequila for a different twist., Taste your mangoes before using; overripe mangoes will lend more sweetness and a richer flavor to the sorbet.
