Note

Storage: Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap or foil before freezing to prevent freezer burn. For longer storage, transfer the frozen sorbet to an airtight container.

Raspberry Variation: To make Raspberry Sorbet, use 4 cups of fresh or frozen raspberries instead of the melon and pineapple. Puree as directed, then press through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds before mixing with the Splenda syrup.

Ice Cream Maker: If you have an ice cream maker, you can churning the mixture according to the manufacturer's directions for a creamier texture.

Serving Tip: If the sorbet is too hard to scoop, let it sit out for a few extra minutes. You can also run your ice cream scoop under hot water and dry it before scooping.
