As mentioned in previous posts, I love the flavor of lime! This recipe is a dairy free dessert highlighting that green ball of goodness. For me, I like to spread out the sorbet making process over a few days. This is because I feel like you need one night to allow the base to cool and one night for the sorbet to harden. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients
Sorbet
- 1 1/4 Cup Water
- 1 Cup Sugar
- 1 Cup Lime Juice
Blackberry Sauce
- 3 Cups Blackberries
- 2 Tablespoons Water
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 4 Graham Cracker Squares
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
To Serve
- Caramel Sauce
Instructions
Day 1
Sorbet
- Dissolve the sugar in water in a small pot over medium heat, about 7 minutes.
- While the sugar water mixture (simple syrup) is cooling, juice the limes. I have a handy dandy citrus press that works really well.
- When the juice is cooled (about an hour), add the juice to the simple syrup and put in fridge overnight.
Blackberry sauce
- Heat blackberries in a small pot over medium heat.
- Add sugar and water.
- Cover and cook, stirring and crushing the blackberries as you go, for about 30 minutes.
Day 2
- Add the sorbet mixture to you ice cream maker and let it do its job.
- (I like my sorbet to be hard, so I always put it in the freezer overnight after making in the machine, but you can eat it now if you'd like).
Graham Cracker Crumbs
- Add the graham crackers to a blender/food processor and buzz until fine dust.
- Add the melted butter and buzz again to make a sand-like mixture.
- Lay out the mixture on a baking dish and bake at 350 for 10 minutes.
To Serve
- Swirl your caramel sauce on the plate. I like trying to make a design with it! Spread some of the graham cracker crumbs on the plate, add a scoop of the lime sorbet and then drizzle with the blackberry sauce
