I make a lot of sorbets, and this is one of the best recipes I've tried. I will definitely make again. For simplicity, I made the sugar syrup on the stovetop. I used Creme de Cassis (black currant liqueur) in place of black currant syrup. I had it in the house, and the addition of alcohol made the sorbet come out smooth and scoop-able.

August 2021. Excellent! Used finer mesh of food mill for Himalayan blackberries, ended up with 3 1/2 cups juice and pulp. Not sure how many berries I started with. Boiled 2 cups sugar, 2 cups water on the stovetop for about 10 minutes. Cooled. Heated Creme de Cassis in microwave to burn off some of the alcohol to not interfere with freezing. Used recommended amount of lemon juice, then added the juice of one lime after tasting. Very scoopable too. The lime added some extra punch.
