- ¼-½ cup water
Instructions

- Respin if crumbly—add 1–2 tablespoon of water or juice
- Serve and enjoy that tart, tropical goodness
Notes
- Taste before freezing. The blended base should taste slightly sweeter than you want the final sorbet. Freezing dulls sweetness, and calamansi sharpens as it freezes.
- Frozen mango works great. No need to thaw — just blend a little longer and scrape down the blender so there are zero chunks.
- Always freeze flat. A level freeze helps the Creami blade spin evenly and prevents icy edges or crumbly centers.
- Expect a Respin. Sorbet aDon’t overdo the liquid. Too much water or juice can make the sorbet slushy. Add liquid a tablespoon at a time.
- Sweetener swaps affect texture. Liquid sweeteners (honey, agave) keep sorbet softer than granulated sugar substitutes.
- For extra creaminess (optional). 1–2 tablespoons coconut cream softens the citrus edge and gives a slightly richer mouthfeel without turning it into ice cream.
- Mix-ins go last. Add toppings only after spinning, using the Mix-In cycle to avoid breaking the texture.
- Storing leftovers. Smooth the top, refreeze, and let sit 5 minutes before scooping — or do a quick Respin to bring it back.
