Is it Spring yet?
I’m eager for warm, sunny days and fields of green, fragrant grass. I’m also eager for days when I can cool down with this Strawberry Buttermilk Sherbet.
It may have been a bit chilly outside when I made this sweet and tangy frozen treat, but it was a clear day, the sun was out and if I sat in it’s rays by my window I could feel a little warmth.
So that’s what I did.
This Strawberry Buttermilk Sherbet couldn’t be any easier to make. I just tossed some fresh strawberries and sugar into a blender and processed them until the sugar was dissolved. Then I poured in the buttermilk, a dash of vanilla and let it blend until it turned a gorgeous pale pink.
The combination of the tangy, nutrient rich buttermilk, with the sweet strawberries is a delicious and refreshing treat. Make sure to use a whole buttermilk, so it gives it that creamy texture.
You’ll want to place your blender in the fridge for about an hour to bring the temperature back down.
Then you can process it in your ice cream maker according to it’s instructions. I poured mine into a parchment lined loaf pan, covered it and froze it for a few more hours to get my desired consistency.
And trust me, I definitely desired it. Make sure you put this tasty treat on your to-do list, it’s delicious!
