This tropical sorbet is a refreshing and flavorful treat that is perfect for a hot summer day. The combination of pineapple and coconut is a classic flavor combination that is always a winner. The maple syrup adds a touch of sweetness, and the lime juice adds a bit of tartness to balance out the flavors. The result is a sorbet that is both sweet and tangy, with a smooth and creamy texture.
The inspiration for this sorbet came to me on a hot summer day in Hawaii. I was sitting on the beach, enjoying a slice of fresh pineapple, when I started to think about how I could turn this delicious fruit into a frozen treat. I experimented with a few different recipes, and eventually came up with this one. It is the perfect way to cool down on a hot day, and it is also a healthy and refreshing snack.
