Tips:
- Make sure your sherbet is completely frozen before blending. This will help to create a smooth, icy texture.
- Use a high-powered blender. This will help to break down the ice crystals and create a creamy texture.
- Add a little bit of milk or cream. This will help to make the sherbet more creamy and smooth.
- Add your favorite flavorings. You can add anything from fruit to chocolate to nuts.
- Freeze the sherbet for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the sherbet to firm up.
