Guava Sorbet
Guava sorbet is a tropical and refreshing dessert that highlights the exotic flavor of guava. Guava originates from South America and is popular in many parts of the world for its juicy, fragrant flesh. The first sorbets were consumed in ancient Rome, when snow flavored with honey and fruit juice was cooled. In the modern version, the natural sweetness of guava and the freshness of lime are in perfect harmony, creating a light, icy dessert. Imagine a spoonful of guava sorbet melting in your mouth, refreshing and invigorating with every bite!

Preparation Steps
1
Wash the guavas, cut them into smaller pieces, remove the seeds, and purée in a blender until completely smooth.
2
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. This should take about 5 minutes.
3
Let the sugar syrup cool completely, then stir in the guava purée and lime juice.
4
Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer.
5
Every 30 minutes, scrape the sorbet with a fork to create an icy, crystalline texture. Repeat this process 3-4 times, until completely frozen.
6
Before serving, let the sorbet stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to make it easier to scoop. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and guava slices.
