Important Recipe Notes:

Use ripe, sweet strawberries: The sweetness of your sorbet depends on the quality of your strawberries. Make sure they’re perfectly ripe for the best flavor.
Skip the sugar: If your strawberries are sweet enough, you can skip the sugar or adjust the amount to your liking.
Blend the strawberries and liquids until smooth for the perfect sorbet texture. If you want a chunkier texture, pulse the blender a little less.
Freeze time varies: Depending on the temperature of your freezer, the sorbet may take a bit longer to set, so plan ahead and give it a couple of hours to fully freeze.
Customize the flavor: You can swap in other berries or add a splash of lemon or lime juice to balance out the sweetness.
Serve soft: If your sorbet becomes too hard after freezing, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping for the perfect consistency.
