Have you been treated to a lemon sorbet cup? Oh my goodness. Heaven. They are a refreshing, sweet, tart, and scrumptious all at one time. My sister, Kristin, recently entertained the family and served these for dessert. In true blogger fashion, I insisted on a few photos prior to putting them on the table. I can not wait to make these for my next party. And for spring and summer, you can’t go wrong with these lemon sorbet cups. … … The wonderful thing about these yummy sorbet cups is that you can make them up to three days ahead of time and leave them in the freezer. My favorite part is that they come out of the freezer frosty and so fresh looking. My sister placed a piece of mint on each one before serving. … .. Two batches of homemade sorbet were made to fill 12 cups. After cutting the top off of the lemon, Kristin used a melon baller to remove the inside of the lemon. She used as much pulp as possible in the sorbet for the juice. Once the cups are hollowed out, they can be placed in the freezer. When the sorbet is ready, pull them out to fill them, and then place them back in the freezer. … Lemon Sorbet Recipe – Emeril Lagasse Ingredients

I'm hosting a girl's night in a couple of weeks and these would be perfect! I love that they can be made a few days prior so that I won't be as rushed to prepare for the party when I get home from work. Thanks for sharing!

These are so beautiful, and I bet they are delicious too! I just had lemonade-flavored Rita's Italian ice tonight, and I'm thinking they would taste similar. So perfect for a summer get-together! Thank you for the great recipe! I hope you had a fun weekend with the girls!
