Equipment

Ninja Creami Ice Cream Machine
Pint container for Ninja Creami machine,
Stick blender (optional, but recommended),
Citrus juicer,
Chopping board and knife for mint

Ingredients
  

  • Juice of 2 medium lemons about 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • Juice of 1 small to medium lime about 4 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/2 cup powdered allulose or sweetener of your choice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint finely chopped
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut water
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest optional

Instructions
 

  • Add the lemon juice, lime juice, coconut water, sweetener, chopped mint, and optional lemon zest to the Ninja Creami pint container.
  • Blend until completely smooth using a stick blender. Alternatively, blend everything in a regular blender before pouring into the pint.
  • Make sure the mixture stays below the Max Fill line.
  • Place the lid on the pint container and freeze on a level surface for 18-24 hours.
  • Remove the lid and place the frozen pint into the outer bowl. Attach the outer bowl lid and lock it into the Ninja Creami machine.
  • Use the Re-Spin function. Do not use the Sorbet button for this recipe.
  • Scoop immediately and garnish with fresh mint, lemon slices, lime wedges, or extra lemon zest if desired.

Notes

  • Freshly squeezed citrus juice gives the brightest flavor.
  • Taste the mixture before freezing and adjust the sweetness if needed.
  • If the pint is not full to the fill line, just top it up with some more coconut water.
  • This recipe behaves differently from my other sorbets. During testing, the Sorbet function made it almost too soft, while one Re-Spin created the perfect scoopable texture.
  • Coconut water adds a subtle tropical flavor and seems to create a naturally softer sorbet texture.
  • Store leftovers with the surface smoothed flat before refreezing. Use the Re-Spin function again before serving.
