What is Sour cherry sorbet?
Sour cherry sorbet is a frozen dessert made by chilling a mixture of sour cherry purée or juice, water and sugar. Unlike ice cream, it contains no dairy, so the fruit’s tart, aromatic flavour comes through clearly.
Its smooth, finely icy texture makes it refreshing on a warm day; serve it in a bowl or cone, often as a light finish to a meal or a palate cleanser.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sour cherry sorbet
What is sour cherry sorbet made of?
Sour cherry sorbet is usually made with sour cherries or their purée, water and sugar. Some recipes add lemon juice to brighten the flavor. Unlike many ice creams, a traditional sorbet does not need milk or cream.
Can you make sour cherry sorbet with frozen cherries?
Yes, frozen sour cherries work well for sour cherry sorbet. Let them soften enough to blend smoothly, then purée them and use them in the recipe; they are especially convenient when fresh sour cherries are out of season.
How is sour cherry sorbet different from cherry sorbet?
Sour cherry sorbet is made with tart cherries, so it tends to taste sharper and less sweet than sorbet made with sweet cherries. The fruit’s natural tartness often makes it especially refreshing and may mean the recipe needs balancing with sugar.
Why does sour cherry sorbet turn hard in the freezer?
Sour cherry sorbet can become very hard because it has little or no fat and freezes solid. Let it stand briefly at room temperature before serving; avoid leaving it out long enough to melt, then refreezing it.
How do you get smooth sour cherry sorbet instead of a grainy one?
For smoother sour cherry sorbet, blend the fruit thoroughly and strain the purée if its skins or pulp feel coarse. While freezing, stir the mixture several times or churn it in an ice-cream maker to limit large ice crystals.
Can sour cherry sorbet be made without added sugar?
Yes, sour cherry sorbet can be made without added sugar, but it will taste tarter and freeze harder. Sugar helps soften the frozen texture as well as sweeten it, so a no-sugar version may be less scoopable.
What desserts go well with sour cherry sorbet?
Sour cherry sorbet pairs well with rich chocolate desserts, vanilla cake and almond pastries. Its tart fruit flavor cuts through sweetness, so it works as a small scoop alongside a richer dessert or between courses.
How long does sour cherry sorbet keep in the freezer?
Sour cherry sorbet can be kept frozen in a tightly sealed container. It is best enjoyed while its flavor and texture are fresh; repeated exposure to air can cause freezer burn and make the surface icy.
Can sour cherry sorbet be refrozen after it melts?
It is better not to refreeze sour cherry sorbet once it has fully melted. Refreezing can create a coarse, icy texture, and food that has been left warm for an extended period may not be safe to eat.
Is sour cherry sorbet served as a dessert or a palate cleanser?
Sour cherry sorbet can be served as either. A small portion between courses refreshes the palate, while a larger scoop after a meal makes a light, fruit-forward dessert.
