Sorbet Ice Cubes
Before putting the purée in the ice-cream maker, spoon them into an ice-cube tray and freeze solid. You can add them to iced tea, lemonade, or fruit punch for a delicious extra flavor. Plus you will get vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber from the puréed fruit. At the very least, squeeze some fresh lemon into your ice-cube trays to give your water some flavor.
