Watermelon Sherbet
You need this Watermelon Sherbet at your next party and I mean it this time! What a way to get the excitement flowing. I love experimenting with new recipes and this was a happy accident. A cool summer dessert or treat to be enjoyed perfectly at the poolside.
I blend sugar with zesty lemon juice, cold water, whole milk and unflavored gelatin which brings all the flavor to this desert from the 8 cups of fresh chopped watermelon. Frozen then scooped into glass bowls and served. I don’t even need to convince you much more!
