  • Water: This helps blend everything smoothly.

HOW TO MAKE

  1. First things first, make sure your strawberries are frozen solid. It’s what gives the sorbet its perfect texture.
  2. Toss the frozen strawberries, sugar, water, and lime juice into a blender. You want everything to be smooth and well combined. Taste it once it’s blended; you can adjust the sweetness if needed.
  3. Pour your strawberry mixture into the ninja creami pint container up to the max fill line. Freeze container for 24 hours until frozen solid.
  4. Remove frozen pint, run under hot water for 60 seconds and install into your ninja creami machine. It’s important that your pint has a level surface, otherwise it can damage the blade. 
  5. For the first spin, select sorbet button. Remove the outer bowl lid. If ice cream is still powdery, then add back to machine and use re-spin function.
  6. Check sorbet. The final product should be creamy and have a smooth texture. If your desired consistency isn’t reached you can add a bit more water and spin again on the respin setting. 
  7. After the Ninja Creami has done its thing, you can enjoy it right away.

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR BEST RESULTS

  • Experiment with Sweetness: Depending on how sweet your strawberries are, you might want to adjust the amount of sugar. Always taste your mixture before freezing.
  • Mix In Fun: Feel free to get creative by adding other berries to the mix or even a splash of balsamic vinegar for a gourmet twist.
  • Garnish Wisely: Serve with fresh mint or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special touch.

FAQS

WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO ENSURE MY SORBET HAS A CREAMY TEXTURE?

To get that creamy texture in your sorbet, ensure your base has enough solids to transform in the Ninja Creami. Using a solid base like frozen strawberries blended to a puree with a quick blend in a food processor before freezing can help achieve this. 

A Creami prep tip is to always start with a cold freezer and a solidly frozen base for the best results.

WHAT CAN I DO IF MY SORBET OR ICE CREAM ISN’T CREAMY ENOUGH?

If your sorbet or ice cream isn’t as creamy as you’d like, use the re-spin cycle on your Ninja Creami. Sometimes, the mixture needs an extra blend to reach that ideal creamy consistency.
