This sorbet can be made using most frozen fruit. I had frozen mango on hand, so that's what I used, but peaches, berries, etc should work as well. This recipe is fast and simple, make before you eat dinner and pop it in the freezer for a bit so it can firm up. Ingredients (makes 2 servings):

On a hot day, it's nice to kick back with a frozen drink. Unfortunately, drink mixes are full of sugar and can make for a nasty hangover! To celebrate summer, I had some friends over for a drink and paint night! Made from fruit and honey, this frozen drink can be made with or without rum depending on your preference!

I don't think that they were convinced that my cottage cheese blenderized concoction could taste like cheesecake, but they all decided that it was absolutely delicious. I would be surprised if the 3 servings I had leftover after dinner tonight are still there tomorrow. This recipe is easy and can be adapted to different tastes. Want chocolate cheesecake? Use chocolate protein powder and pudding mix. Cookies n cream? Do it! This recipe will be basic vanilla, and I'll probably add some adaptations in future posts because it is so easy and delicious!
