Matcha Sorbet

What better way to indulge and cool down than having some good ice cream or sorbet? The problem with store-bought versions is that they tend to be filled with so much sugar, which will throw your hormonal balance off balance in no time. 

Today, our team has come up with a spectacular matcha sorbet that is dairy-free, creamy, tastes amazing. It is sweetened with Lakanto monkfruit, a natural 1:1 sugar replacement that everyone, even diabetics, can enjoy. Lankanto contains erythritol which is a form of sugar alcohol – I’m generally cautious of such sugars but it seems to be safe for most of our readers. Note: some people with hyper sensitive digestion might develop digestive discomfort from sugar alcohols. 

Using cashew milk in place of dairy milk, this sorbet tastes just like the real thing, but is lactose-free for those who are lactose-intolerant to enjoy as well! 

Even if you’ve never made sorbet at home before, this recipe is foolproof and super simple, you’ll want to make it over and over again.
