The BEST Raspberry Sorbet recipe

There are some REALLY bad sorbet recipes out there (as there are ice cream recipes too) so I wanted to make sure my first sorbet make was REALLY good, quite possibly the best raspberry sorbet you'll make.
Raspberry sorbet should be almost creamy, smooth, packed with flavour and not like crushed ice cream or Granita. I spoke to my friend Chiara about how to achieve the best sorbet and she gave me great advice as always, and the result is PERFECT!
So if you want to make the best raspberry sorbet at home, here's what you'll need:
300g Water
500g Raspberries
220g Sugar
85g Dextrose
5g Pectin powder
Watch the video to see how to use the pectin properly, once the sorbet lightens in colour and stiffens up, it's ready to extract from your machine.
Such as strong beautiful raspberry flavour, amazing colour and the mouthfeel is incredible. It's almost ice cream!

Home-made raspberry and strawberry ice creams are delightful. I really recommend you try making them. I simply mix sugar and fruit, lightly cook, strain out the pips, cool and mix with cream. Then it is into the ice cream maker. I have tried ice creams with uncooked and gently cooked fruit, and whilst the two are slightly different, I don't find one better than the other.

[@PolarIceCreamery]

I will look in to that method 👍

[@vaidikawadhera]

Really appreciate how generously you share such valued knowledge! Have loved following you on Facebook groups and here over on KZbin. Thank you for everything 💙

[@PolarIceCreamery]

My absolute pleasure ☺️ thanks for being here with me on this ice cream journey 🎅

[@molham1274]

great video, waiting for more sorbets

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Got some planned very soon 👍

[@kakaora1262]

Great video Nick! Sorbet is a great seller here! Have a safe and happy holiday!

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Thanks Charlie! You make sure to have a good, safe holiday too my friend 🎅

[@luna-scarletteverfree4634]

What can I use I don't have dextrose

[@shvekal]

I used this recipe for a pear sorbet and not suprised that it's the best textured sorbet I've ever made. SO GOOD! And pears are just amazing in sorbet in general. One of the best in my opinion. I'm so very happy I stumbled onto your channel, you've upped my frozen desserts game by so many leagues! I reduced the sugar as pears are sweeter but should have reduced some more, it was still a bit too sweet. But my fault for using recipes for other stuff and not adjusting properly :D Thank you Nick!

[@PolarIceCreamery]

It’s good having you here as a regular member of the ice cream family ✌️ my wife loves Pears….. I hate them 😂 That level of perfection is addictive isn’t it, once you know you can make THE BEST ice cream, only the best will do.

[@shvekal]

@@PolarIceCreamery omg yes. You've ruined me for other recipes lol. Make a pear sorbet for your wife, she will love it. Pear is the only sorbet I ever try anywhere. I view sorbet as a waste of ice cream space usually :D

[@PolarIceCreamery]

@@shvekal she hates peanut butter soshe can have Pear and i'll make a PB&J ice cream!

[@shvekal]

@@PolarIceCreamery Sounds like a good plan to me :D

[@CheesyManGamer]

@@PolarIceCreameryI was actually just about to try making a PB&J ice cream, i’m not exactly sure how jelly freezes so would you suggest just swirling in jelly and freezing it, or will it be too hard and would I need to make a syrup with it similar to how you did your peanut butter swirl?

[@jamelbutler6504]

Very good content! I was wondering, with Sorbets, do we have to strain the blended mix? Im planning to use the whole juice function on my vitamix and wanted to know if it would make a difference in the end result.

[@PolarIceCreamery]

No it shouldn’t have a significant effect on the result to be honest. I prefer sorbet with a smoother texture (no pulp etc) but that is purely personal preference.

[@donnasmith3187]

Hi, fantastic sorbet! I have made it twice. The result is incredible. I was just thinking to replace the raspberry with 100% mango puree. Do you think would it work? Or the hole recipe must be adjusted? Thank you.

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Thank you so much ☺️ as for Mango, they have 10% more sugar than raspberries so if you drop the sugar to 200g and see how it ends up. They are more fibrous than raspberries but if you strain it or make sure you blend it all well, it while be fine.

[@donnasmith3187]

@@PolarIceCreamery Thank you very much. Will let you know the final result.

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Look forward to hearing the result.

[@donnasmith3187]

@@PolarIceCreamery👍👍👍Hi, I have made a mango sorbet using this recipe today. I reduced the sugar to 180g, as mango puree was already sweetened, and also added the juice of two freshly squizzed limes (when I tried, the mix needed extra zing...) Then added two passion fruit to the mix. The result is incredible. Fantastic aromatic sorbet, as creamy as raspberry one, easily scoopable (straight out of the freezer). Sofar family favorite! I would share some photos, but not sure how. Thank you 😃

[@PolarIceCreamery]

@@donnasmith3187 oh nice!! That sounds delicious, definitely want to try that myself. If you’re in instagram you can message me some pics 👍 or email them to [e-mail]

[@anouk1636]

Does it work with Frozenberrys too? I guess I just have to take less water then?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Yep that sounds right, there will a lot of water already in there.

[@LinsKun]

Do you think that is possible to make this sorbet with sweetener ? (No Allulose or MonkFruit in EU 😢)

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Xylitol yes. There are so many sweeteners that I don’t know what’s in 99% of them.

[@DanielASchaeffer]

What does dextrose add that sucrose doesn't already possess?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

It suppresses the freezing point of the mix so it’s softer in the freezer/easier to scoop. You can just use sucrose but it’ll freeze slight harder.

[@user-vx8zj1vj8q]

Can you use xylitol or Allulose instead of sugar?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Allulose yes, xylitol yes but it would be a different amount.

[@user-vx8zj1vj8q]

@@PolarIceCreamery How much xylitol please?

[@mohamedsharif9736]

nick, not sure if you've heard of water ice(philly) or italian ice. it really seems like a sorbet really. not sure if i'm missing anything, but just seems like a sorbet right?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

No it’s not sorbet, sorbet is much smoother than both of these. Water Ice and Italian Ice has much larger ice crystal sizes respectively. They are actually closer to Granita really.

[@mohamedsharif9736]

@@PolarIceCreamery got ya. Never had water ice. I watched some videos and people described it as “smooth”. But watching this video. If I skipped to the end, I would’ve thought this is regular ice cream. I also read that they use stabilizers in water ice. Not sure for what purpose since the ice crystals seems to be the texture you’re going for

[@PolarIceCreamery]

@@mohamedsharif9736 that’s how good the texture is for great sorbet 👍 don’t know why they’d use stabilizer though.

Limon sorbet tarifiniz var mı ?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

No but I really want to make one, I’ll add it to the list.

[@dandinh7136]

@@PolarIceCreameryplease lemon sorbet would be great. In my eyes one of the hardest sorbet to make due to high water in the fruit itself

Hi, what type of pectin is it Citrus Pectin or Apple pectin,

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Always apple pectin 👍

[@robertbascelli6433]

My Sorbet sales in the summer always do better than the Gelato sales which increase over Sorbet in the cooler months. I live in Mexico on the Sea of Cortez so our winters are very very mild. We still wear shorts and flip flops in the winter here so Gelato sells better than the Sorbets.

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Would love to see Mexico one day, it’s on the list. I think I have been unlucky with buying bad sorbet over the years that when finally a good sorbet such as this raspberry one came long, it blew my mind.

[@vamsikrishna8620]

That's a greay video nick.. but why pectin...why not LBG?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

Pectin is the PERFECT stabilizer for sorbet. It’s also considerably cheaper!

[@vamsikrishna8620]

Is there any reason? Do we get the same result when any other stabilizer is used?

[@PolarIceCreamery]

You can get decent results using other stabilizers but others don’t produce as good a result. Generally commercial sorbet stabilizers contain gelatin, guar gum and LBG. They often have other junk in there that really doesn’t do much.
