If you're looking for a sorbet that combines unexpected flavors, this beetroot-orange sorbet is for you. The subtle sweetness of the beetroot blends perfectly with the refreshing acidity of the orange, creating an original, colorful, and ultra-refreshing dessert.
Ingredients :
- 1 small cooked beetroot (approximately 150g)
- 200 ml of fresh orange juice (about 2 oranges)
- 2 tablespoons of agave syrup (adjust to your taste)
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- 80 ml of water
- 1 small pinch of salt (optional)
Preparation :
- Prepare the beetroot.
If your beetroot is raw, cook it in water or steam it until very tender. Let it cool completely. Once cooked and cooled, cut it into pieces to make blending easier. - Blend the ingredients.
In a blender, add the beetroot pieces, fresh orange juice, agave syrup, lemon juice, water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. The color of this mixture alone is already magnificent—a deep, striking red! - Pour into the Ninja Creami container.
Transfer the mixture into the Ninja Creami container, being careful not to exceed the MAX FILL . Then, place it in the freezer for 24 hours . - Sorbet time!
After 24 hours of freezing, insert the container into the Ninja Creami and use the "Sorbet" . In just a few minutes, you'll have a super colorful and perfectly smooth sorbet. - Respin Tip:
If the texture is still too firm after the first cycle, use the "Respin" and add approximately 30 ml of liquid (such as water or more orange juice) to achieve an even smoother texture.
My Personal Tip:
This beetroot-orange sorbet is delicious on its own, but if you really want to make it even more surprising, add a drizzle of honey or a little orange zest to enhance the freshness. And why not try some chopped pistachios for a lovely color contrast and a touch of crunch?
Here's a bold and unusual recipe! Beetroot-orange sorbet is a perfect marriage of sweet and tangy, with a vibrant color and a super-fresh texture thanks to Ninja Creami. It's the perfect dessert to impress and surprise with something truly original and delicious.
