Passion Fruit Sorbet

Remember how I gushed about this new restaurant I tried last week?  See here...well the food was so delicious I couldn't wait to try my hand at replicating it.  The first item I made, because it was just too simple, was the last item I ate...Passion Fruit Sorbet. *swoon*

 

I thought I would have a difficult time finding passion fruit pulp but it was in the freezer section with the Mexican foods at my local grocer; didn't have to trek to a specialty store! Ha-Zaaa! I purchased two packages because, well, I drink and anything mixed with passion fruit can't be too bad right??  Really easy recipe that packs lots of refreshing flavor.  This sorbet could also be used as a palate cleanser if you are ever so inclined to host a fancy dinner with several courses! Enjoy!
