Strawberry and Lemon Sorbet

It's starting to get real hot here in Texas, so what better recipe then something to cool you down in this awful heat! You can really use whatever fruit you like, (I used strawberries because that's what I had) but you can try it with mango, raspberries, pineapple, orange, lemon...the options are endless! This doesn't take long at all and you can store it in your freezer up to three weeks so it's perfect to make and keep for this brutal summer we are about to endure. The lemon makes it super refreshing! Try this recipe or replace it with your favorite fruit and let me know how it turns out!
