  • 0.85 cup water
  • 0.5 cup sugar

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Ice Cream Maker

Procedure

Here are the steps to make a delicious cantaloupe sorbet at home with only 3 simple ingredients

  • First, take a ripe cantaloupe, any type will do. The best one, in my opinion, is the classic cantaloupe.

  • Remove the seeds from the cantaloupe and cut it into slices.

    Remove the rind from the slices and blend the flesh with a handheld blender/mixer until you get a thick mixture.

  • Place a small pot over the heat with water and sugar and simmer gently until the sugar is completely dissolved.

    This way, we’ll obtain a syrup that will serve as the base for our cantaloupe sorbet.

  • Pour the syrup over the cantaloupe pulp and mix gently. The final result will be our base for the cantaloupe sorbet.

    Put it in the ice cream maker for 20-30 minutes using the appropriate program. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, put the liquid in a large bowl in the fridge and stir every 15 minutes to incorporate air for 2 hours.

    Finally, your cantaloupe sorbet is ready!
