  • Use fresh citrus juice: Fresh citrus juice will give your sorbet a brighter flavor than bottled juice.
  • Add honey or agave syrup to taste: The amount of sweetener you add will depend on the sweetness of your honeydew melon and citrus juice. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Chill the sorbet before serving: This will help it firm up and scoop more easily.
