A bite of this refreshing sorbet is like stepping into a cold shower on a hot summer day. Thanks to the juice and zest of an entire lemon, this four-ingredient frozen treat has plenty of zing, but the creaminess of the buttermilk and the earthiness of the vanilla mellow it all out so you're not left with an unpleasant pucker. A quick note: The zest and the vanilla seeds can clump a bit during the churning process. Just stir it into the sorbet before serving (for soft serve) or freezing (for a firmer sorbet).

[email protected]This sorbet is a great way to use up leftover buttermilk. I always have some leftover after making pancakes or waffles, and this is a great way to use it up without wasting it.

[email protected]I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this sorbet was to make. I didn't have an ice cream maker, but I was still able to make it in my blender. It turned out just as good as store-bought sorbet.

[email protected]This lemon buttermilk sorbet was a delightful treat! The tangy lemon flavor was perfectly balanced by the creamy buttermilk, and the sorbet had a smooth, velvety texture. It was the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day.
