Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced Fresh strawberries are best for flavor, frozen can be used in a pinch.
  • 1 cup sugar Feel free to adjust based on desired sweetness.
  • 1 cup water

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally for about 5-7 minutes, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. Place the hulled and sliced strawberries in a blender and puree on high speed until smooth, roughly 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add the cooled sugar water to the blender and blend until well combined, resulting in a lovely pink mixture.
Freezing
  1. Pour the mixture into a shallow container and place it in the freezer. Freeze for about 4-6 hours, stirring every hour with a fork to break up any ice crystals until it reaches a soft, sorbet-like consistency.
Serving
  1. Serve slightly chilled, scooping into bowls or cones.

Notes

To enhance flavor, serve with a sprig of mint or drizzled with balsamic glaze. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer; best consumed within the first few days.
