Herb Sorbet Recipes

This past year I’ve been experimenting a lot with adding fresh herbs to baked goods and more dessert-y foods and it’s been such a joy! Fresh basil has been a stable in my morning routine (with this Tropical Basil Green Smoothie) for a long time, now I’m adding it to my after-dinner nice cream! 

Don’t be afraid to give your Vitamix a workout! It can handle the initial loud blending! You can add more milk if needed, but some good old fashioned elbow work and powerful blending will get you a smooth, creamy pineapple basil sorbet in a couple of minutes!

However, I have transferred it to a freezer-safe container and kept it in the freezer for up to 3 hours before serving it for a light dinner party dessert.

If you freeze it for much longer, it will get icy and hard (as it has no fat). You can still eat it, of course! But it will need time to defrost and soften on the counter. 

Add-in some super foods! I have added all of the following to this pineapple basil sorbet to increase the nutritional profile or add a little extra something special. 

Refreshing and creamy! This take on sorbet is my summer dessert go-to. It's best served right after it's made but you can also pop it in the freezer for a couple of hours before serving.

After all the ingredients are in the blender and you turn it on, it will make a lot of noise. This is ok!

Plunge the mixture up and down as it blends and after a couple of minutes it will all come together and swirl together, thick and creamy. Once it reaches this stage, it's ready.
