Sorbet is an extremely refreshing dessert, especially when it's made with only a few simple ingredients, including fresh fruit. This is the perfect treat on a hot summer day or as a follow-up dish to a spicy Asian meal. And if you aren't a mango fan, you can easily substitute fresh peaches, strawberries, or raspberries.

Here's a new and refreshing twist on the typical ice cream recipe! You'll likely want to add this Root Beer Ice Cream recipe to your go-to list of summertime beverages. Exhausted, overheated, and above all else, thirsty enough to down the contents of an entire water cooler in one big gulp, its the oppressive humidity that makes it near impossible to think of cooking or eating real food in summer.
