In a large sauce pan, Stir together the water, Lemon juice and zest, lemon lime soda and sugar.
Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to simmer for 5 minutes.
Set aside to cool.
Once cooled, add to the canister and place in the freezer for 1 ½ hours.
Stir the mix 1 every hour for 5 hours to incorporate air into the mix for a lighter finished product.
Once the sorbet is solid, prep the strawberries and blueberries by washing them and drying.
Cut the strawberries into quarters.
Scoop some of the sorbet onto the sponge cake, top with whipped cream and berries and mint. Enjoy!
Notes
Chill the Mixture Before Freezing – Let the mixture cool completely in the fridge for at least 2 hours before freezing. This helps it freeze more evenly and improves texture.Use a Shallow Freezing Container – A wide, shallow container allows the sorbet to freeze faster and makes stirring easier for a smoother consistency.Stir Gently But Consistently – When mixing every hour, use a fork or whisk to break up ice crystals and aerate the sorbet for a light and fluffy texture.
