Strawberry Sorbet

 I love this recipe. It's so tasty, and sweet (maybe a little too sweet, I think I would just put a cup of sugar in next time). It's great for a summer time treat or a little something to remind you of summer!

1 cup water
1 1/4 cup sugar
3 cups frozen strawberries
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons fruit liqueur (optional, I used a pomegranate one, it was super tasty!)


Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan, remove from heat, and stir in the sugar until it is completely dissolved. Set aside and let cool.

Place strawberries in a blender or food processor along with cooled syrup and process until pureed.  Add the lemon juice and liqueur (if using), cover and refrigerate until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.

Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled place in your ice cream machine and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once made, transfer to a chilled container and store in the freezer. When the sorbet becomes solid you may need to place it in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes so it is soft enough to serve.
