Blueberry Sorbet Recipe. If you want your sorbet to last a while in the freezer, and not get too rock hard, you might want to add a tablespoon or two of corn syrup to the mix. Or you can add 2 tablespoons of kirsch or a berry or orange liqueur. Method 1 Place the blueberries, sugar, honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt in a large bowl. Stir to coat blueberries with the sugar. Mash with a potato masher. 2 Put the mashed blueberries into a blender and blend for a couple of minutes until smooth. 3 Place a sieve over a large bowl and working in batches, press the mixture through the sieve, using a rubber spatula. 4 Chill the mixture for at least an hour in the fridge. Eat immediately (the sorbet will still be a little soft) or freeze at least a few hours to help firm up before eating. Serve with a few fresh blueberries and a sprig of mint.

We are moving into the tail end of the month long campaign in October by the Breast Cancer Foundation to raise awareness for breast cancer. Cancer, of any form is trecherous but breast cancer, in particular has an eery sense of relevance and reality among every woman.
