Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Juice of 1 lime
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Puree the diced mangoes in a blender until smooth. Add lime juice, salt, and half of the sugar. Blend again until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, remaining sugar, and vanilla extract until sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth.
- Pour both mixtures into separate containers and freeze for about 2-3 hours, or until partially set.
- Once the sorbets are partially frozen, use a fork to fluff each mixture, then layer them into serving cups in alternating colors, swirling gently to create a marbled effect.
- Return the cups to the freezer for another hour to firm up before serving.
Notes
Tip: For an extra tropical touch, garnish with fresh mint leaves or shredded coconut before serving.
For a smoother texture, make sure to puree the mango completely until there are no lumps. If you prefer a sweeter sorbet, adjust the sugar according to your taste before freezing. You can also replace coconut milk with almond milk for a different flavor profile.
These sorbet cups can be stored in the freezer in an airtight container for up to one week. Just let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften slightly for easy scooping.
