Made this with very ripe mangoes - halved the recipe and followed directions to a T: really nice colour, nice taste, although a bit too sweet to be really refreshing. However, the reason for only 3 stars, is the sorbet was solid ice block. In order to serve I have set the dish out on the counter for it to thaw out some. Next time I will cut down on the syrup and add some cream

Great recipe - first one I made on my ice cream maker (which I've had for several years!) and was motivated due to the simple ingredients and great reviews. If you don't have super ripe mangoes (as in my case), cube the mangoes ahead of time and let them macerate in their juices to increase the sweetness and flavour. Served it to guests to rave reviews!

This is a great way to A. Use mangos & B. eat something that is a healthy alternative to ice cream. I made this for my wife and I and it received big thumbs up. For those of you watching what you eat this can be an excellent end to a great meal.

I wanted to cut the sugar so I used very ripe mangos and for the simple syrup used only 1/2 cup water, with 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup Splenda (packets - not granules) it came out perfect. All you taste is the fabulous mango flavor. I also took the suggestion of another review and put in the zest of the lime while boiling the water, but just one lime not 2. This is a great, simple recipe - thanks for sharing.

Very enjoyable. Wonderful when you need to use up mangos that are getting over ripe. These give the absolute best flavor. I have made this several times now in my ice cream maker for the kitchenaid stand mixer. It turns out great. I had the same problem as others with quantities - so here's what I did: 1) 2 cups mango flesh, 1/2 cup simple syrup, 2 tbsp sugar, 3 tbsp fresh lime juice, 1/2 tsp lime zest, 1/3 cup heavy cream or yogurt, salt to taste; 2) use a spoon to scrape mango flesh from the skin; 3) puree all, but the sugar in the blender at a high speed for at least 5 minutes; 4) refridgerate batter overnight, puree again with the addition of the sugar before freezing in your machine. Following this procedure really cuts down on the stringiness of the mangos.

Was a good start but WAY too much sugar for me. I will lessen the sugar next time but keep the rest of the recipe the same.

Delicious! Like summer in a bowl. Great mango flavor and beautiful color. I doubled the recipe and added a little extra lime juice. Would be fabulous with a sprig of mint and lime wedge.

this recipe was great! And it was very easy. The ending result of the sorbet was quite soft so I chilled it overnight and it came out fantastic! I only had one mango so I added 2 bananas to replace the other two mangoes. I will definitely use this recipe again!

Excellent Sorbet!! Easy to put together with minimal effort, and very satisfying in flavor and overall taste. I would reccomend to others when choosing mangos to pick only the RIPEST mangos to get the most of the flavors. The skin should be more red than green, give when you squeeze it and have a mango scent. I peeled, diced the mangos, placed them in the fridge to get cold. I used the simple syrup recipe on this website as well, then chilled it. I cut the recipe in half since I am really the only one who will really eat mango sorbet. I used 1 1/2 T fresh lime juice. I chilled everything for at least couple of hours before making the sorbet. I really think having everything chilled before hand really helped in the freezing process. The puree took me a couple of minutes. I left a few small tiny chunks in there, personal preference. I had my sorbet done in 25 minutes in my cuisinart ice cream maker. I noticed the sorbet had some firmness but still soft to the touch with a spoon, perfect for me! I like my consistency no too firm and not too soft. Everything turned out perfectly. It was nicely chilled and I can see little bits of fresh mangos throughout the sorbet. I can taste the fresh mangos and smell its' fragrant aroma. I did not even notice the lime juice even thou I know it is in there. Great no-fail recipe and no adjustments needed. A keeper for me and will use again. I am saving the other half of the simple syrup for my next sorbet recipe.
