Only four ingredients in this easy-to-make sherbet, so the sweetness of the strawberries really shines through. A splash of lime is the perfect tart compliment to the sweet, juicy strawberries.
I’ve got another delicious summer treat for you today. Veggie Grettie, is my Secret Recipe Club blog this month. On Veggie Grettie, Gretchen focuses on eating a plant based diet for optimal health. Whatever she bakes or cooks is gluten-free as well as vegan. There were several recipes I wanted to try, but I loved the grogeous red color of her Strawberry Lime Sorbet.
Gretchen used So Delicious Vanilla Coconut “Yogurt” which is made with coconut milk in her Strawberry Lime Sorbet. Chobani sent me a great selection of their delicious Greek yogurt to sample (I mentioned in a previous post how much I love their lemon yogurt), so I decided to use non-fat Strawberry Chobani Greek yogurt instead.
I was impatient to make this recipe, so I didn’t chill my ice cream freezer insert long enough. It didn’t set up in the ice cream maker and it wasn’t as smooth as I would have liked, but the flavor was excellent. Creamy and delicious with no fat. A perfect way to cool off this summer.

Strawberry Lime Sherbet
Ingredients
- 4 cups sliced strawberries
- ¾ cup 6 oz. strawberry yogurt
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons agave more or less depending on the sweetness of your berries
Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients (except the agave) into the blender and blend until smooth.
- Taste the mixture to determine the amount of sweetener needed and sweeten to taste.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturers directions. Once the ice cream maker has finished its cycle pour the sorbet into a container and freeze. You may want to take it out of the freezer and mix it quickly every 30 minutes for 2 hours to keep the consistency even.
- If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the sorbet mixture from the blender into a freezer safe container (preferrably a shallow container to expedite freezing) and take it out of the freezer to mix it every half hour until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Remove from the freezer 20 minutes prior to serving to soften slightly.

What a perfect summer treat, Barbara! Love it!

This looks great and a healthful alternative to store-bought sherbet or ice cream! We’re in triple-degree heat where I live, so something sweet and cool sounds fantastic to me right now!
Riley
This sounds really great! Especially by sweetening it up with agave! Yummy!
Kimberly@ FiveLittleChefs
I have strawberries and lime right now in my refrigerator. I bet my Little Chefs would love to make this! We will link back when we post.
Holly
This looks wonderful! I could definitely make this for my kiddos and feel good about it – especially with this crazy heat we’ve been having!! D came home from work last night and said it got up to a miserable 106 degrees in the tunnel yesterday!! Not so bad for students, but he was in there all day (and hates the heat!). Miss you lady!
Vicky
A perfect summer treat! Very interesting that his recipe uses strawberry yogurt! I’ve never seen that before in a sherbet!
Lisa
I’ve never made sherbet before, but we were never without a tub when I was growing up since mt father had to have it every week. I’m so excited to try this recipe, especially using strawberry Greek yogurt, which is a brilliant and creamier sub for the milk. Barb, it looks fantastic and the addition of lime is such a refreshing tang! Beautiful photos too..as always 🙂

A light and tasty ice treat!
Margaret
Now I need to pull out that bottle of agave so I can make these. What a lovely color.
Maureen @ Orgasmic Chef
Barbara, this sherbet is so attractive. I just want to take a bite. Strawberries are in season up here now so I’m going to make some sherbet. It’s winter so maybe I won’t want to eat heaps on a cold night. 🙂
Kirstin
YUM! Sounds so good and easy
Katrina @ Warm Vanilla Sugar
Mmm what a perfect summer treat! Love it!
Veronica
Love this simple recipe! Also love that you don’t need an ice cream maker. So pretty too!
Tessa
I have been really wanting to make a strawberry sherbert recently, but combining it with lime is something I wouldn’t have though about. Sounds so refreshing!
