    So I've been trying to restrict my ice cream intake after eating my weight in ice cream during ice cream week and then chugging a ton of milkshakes. But goodness help me, I can't help but crave a sweet frozen dessert in my life as often as humanly possible. So I made a sorbet. A kiwi sorbet with bright kick of key lime and a touch of coconut milk for depth.

    Besides my addiction to all things frozen and sweet this summer, I've been trying to enjoy the summer without worrying too much about work. A bit of a semi-staycation. It's been nice to not worry so much about trying to keep up with everything and concentrate on enjoying my daughter's last summer before she starts school.

    This kiwi sorbet is a tasty and refreshing summer treat you will want to eat again and again

    Speaking of...we are a ball of nerves when it comes to her first day of school. We get to meet her teacher a week before school starts and I can't wait to see who it is. Nadia got to meet one of the teachers a couple of weeks ago and she is really hoping that will be her teacher this year because they really hit it off. Eek! I am not ready for my baby to grow up!

    So instead maybe I will have another bowl of kiwi sorbet and live in a bit of denial for the next couple of weeks.

    Prep Time 15 mins
    Cook Time 4 mins
    Total Time 19 mins

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 cup sugar
    • ½ cup key lime juice
    • ½ cup water
    • 2 lbs fresh kiwi
    • ½ cup coconut milk

    Instructions
     

    • Add the sugar, key lime juice, and water together in a saucepan and heat, mixing well, until the sugar dissolves.
    • Add the kiwi, plus half the key lime syrup and the coconut milk together in a blender. Blend until the kiwi is liquefied. Optionally run the mixture through a strainer to remove the seeds (I left them). Test the sorbet for sweetness and add more syrup as needed. Remember, it should taste a lot sweeter at room temperature as the sweetness is subdued when frozen. (I ended up using all the syrup)
    • Chill the sorbet in the refrigerator for at least an hour or two.
    • Churn according to the manufacturer instructions on your ice cream maker. Alternatively, you can use these instructionsto make the sorbet without and ice cream maker.
