Instructions
- Step 1: Peel and dice 2 cups ripe mangoes into 1/2-inch cubes, then place in a blender with 3 tbsp fresh lime juice, 1/4 cup honey, and 1/4 cup water. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Step 2: Strain the mango mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any fibrous bits, pressing firmly with a spatula until all liquid passes through.
- Step 3: Pour the strained liquid into a shallow dish and freeze for 1 hour, then use a fork to break up ice crystals every 20 minutes for 3 hours until slushy and evenly frozen.
- Step 4: Just before serving, gently fold 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint into the sorbet and chill for 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
