Dark Chocolate Lime Sorbet


Making ice cream and writing this blog is a great excuse to see my world and experiences as new potential flavors.  When my friend April recently invited me to catch up, have dinner, and share some chocolates for dessert, one taste became inspiration!



Upon special request, I set out to recreate the flavor in a non-dairy creation.  High quality chocolates will melt and refreeze easily into a smooth sorbet.  As I tasted this new flavor, I wondered how I could have overlooked making this flavor earlier!  The tangy lime and chocolate reminded me of a vacation to Key West where I first tasted Frozen Key Lime Pie on a Stick.  Years later, I was thrilled to discover Steve's authentic Key Lime Pie on a Stick while biking around Redhook, Brooklyn.  Both frozen pies on sticks are fantastic (how could they not be?).


Do any of these chocolate flavors inspire ice cream ideas for you?
