Papaya Sorbet
Papaya sorbet is an exotic and refreshing dessert that highlights the sweet, silky texture and unique tropical flavor of papaya. Papaya originates from Central and South America, and the Aztecs enjoyed it for its refreshing effects. The first sorbets were consumed in ancient Rome, when snow flavored with honey and fruit juice was chilled. In the modern version, the natural sweetness of papaya and the tart freshness of lime combine harmoniously, creating a light, icy dessert. Imagine a spoonful of papaya sorbet melting in your mouth, refreshing and invigorating with every bite!

Every 30 minutes, scrape the sorbet with a fork to create an icy texture. Repeat this process 3-4 times until it is completely frozen.
