Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Mix the Base

  • In a mixing bowl, add milk, heavy cream and sugar. Whisk well until sugar dissolves completely. This creates a smooth base and ensures the sherbet has a creamy texture later.

Add Lime Flavor

  • Pour in fresh lime juice and lime zest. Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Mix gently until everything is well combined and evenly blended.

Pour into Container

  • Transfer the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container. Make sure the top is flat. This helps the machine process the mixture evenly after freezing.

Freeze the Mixture

  • Place the container in the freezer. Freeze for at least 12 hours or overnight. The mixture should be completely solid before using the Ninja Creami machine.

Process in Ninja Creami

  • Remove the frozen pint from the freezer. Place it into the Ninja Creami machine. Select the “Sorbet” or “Lite Ice Cream” setting and let it process fully.

Re-spin if Needed

  • Check the texture after the first spin. If it looks crumbly, run the re-spin function once or twice. This helps achieve a creamy and smooth texture.

Serve Fresh

  • Scoop the sherbet into bowls. Serve immediately for the best texture. Enjoy your homemade Ninja Creami Lime Sherbet Recipe with a fresh and cool taste.

Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice for best flavor
  • Do not skip freezing time
  • Re-spin for smoother texture
  • Adjust sugar based on taste
  • Use full-fat dairy for creaminess
  • Flatten the mixture before freezing
  • Serve immediately after processing
