Blackberry Coconut Sorbet

 Blackberry Coconut Sorbet.  Three ingredients.  No dairy.  Little sugar.  Pure bliss.  And?  (Come closer…)  No ice cream maker needed.  I know.  It’s pretty awesome.

Coconut milk is my favorite non-dairy milk.   It’s such a good substitute for cows milk because it’s still super creamy and rich, but then cows milk doesn’t taste like coconut.  And coconut milk does…taste like coconut.  So I like it that much more.  Coconut forever!  It’s hard for me not to put coconut in everything I make.  Luckily my little kids and my hubby like it as much as I do.

We’ve grown accustomed to having a small treat after dinner, which isn’t good, I realize that.  We always seems to have some little treat hanging around from a photo shoot or something.  And sometimes by the end of the day, I just think I plain deserve something sweet.  One can only eat so many vegetables!  So I have a piece of expensive chocolate and let it melt slowly on my tongue and savor every layer of flavor.  Or I scoop up a small bowl of sorbet and let each spoonful melt slowly on my tongue.  Either way, dessert is much better after the kids go to bed and I can sit down for a minute to really experience it.  Dessert should be experienced.

I’m making way more out of this than I need , aren’t I?  But do you ever feel that way about something you love?
