Cool down on a hot summer’s day with this refreshing pineapple orange sorbet! It requires just 6 ingredients and mere minutes of hands-on time to make. And you don’t need an ice cream maker – the recipe uses a food processor or high speed blender instead.
This recipe uses canned crushed pineapple for convenience, but you can swap in fresh if you have a very ripe and juicy pineapple.
