Could you believe it was 45 degrees yesterday! I am getting baked and my room resembles an oven :(
All I could do is to enjoy an ice cold sorbet and few fruit pops now and then and sit back the whole day right under the AC.
Enjoy the yellows of life. :)
It was really a challenge to click the sorbet and pops since they were melting down in seconds. The sorbet has a grainy texture which the photo failed to show. :(

Now mix in the pureed mango to the sugar syrup and add lime juice and salt to it.
Transfer the sorbet to a freezer proof container and put it into the freezer. Whisk to break down crystals every hour. Do this using your ice cream maker if are lucky to have one. ;) Leave it to set over night.
Scoop out and serve with mango pieces :)
