Ah, the Pink Drink Sorbet: the dessert that screams “Instagram-worthy” but also says “I’ll take my summer chic and make it frozen.” It’s like someone took a sip of that overhyped pink drink, froze it, and turned it into a dessert. Who needs a sugary, sugary smoothie when you can have a tart, fruity, icy treat that’s just as visually appealing, but far less… cloying? With just the right amount of tang and sweetness, this sorbet is the grown-up version of your favorite drink, now in frozen form. Seriously, it’s cooler (pun intended) than any regular dessert.

Additional Notes/Tips
- Frozen fruit is key: The more frozen the fruit, the better the texture of the sorbet.
- Adjust sweetness: Depending on the tartness of your fruit, you can increase or decrease the sugar.
- No fancy equipment? Use an ice cream maker for a smoother finish, but a regular blender works just fine too.
- Extra zing: Add a splash of lime juice if you want a citrusy twist.
