Banana-Blackberry Sorbet

Wow, was this good! Fresh and fruity, it tasted of both blackberries and banana without one fruit overpowering the other. They complemented each other well with the banana mellowing out the sharpness of the blackberries and providing creaminess to the sorbet without adding dairy.

This was a variation of the banana-blueberry sorbet and the author didn’t mention straining the pureed fruit. With blueberries, it may not be necessary, but I thought it was needed with the blackberries; I don’t mind little crunchy bits and the slight bitterness that comes with them, but most people do, so I strained the mixture of pureed fruit, sugar and water before churning.

Excellent on its own or served with fresh berries.
