Great taste, perfect texture
Only sorbet on here that does NOT use simply syrup. Coincidence? I think not.
Don't get me wrong, this sorbet has the same or more sugar than standard simple syrup based recipes, but the result is a much smoother sorbet.
I'm assuming due to the higher water content when you use simple syrup, you end up with a consistency that is too mushy if underfrozen or too hard when overfrozen.
