In the Caribbean, light sorbets seem to be more popular than heavy ice cream. Here is a yummy recipe for a tropical inspired sorbet using limes, spearmint and ginger. An ice cream maker isn't necessary, but sure makes the job easier. If you'd like an adult version of this recipe, just mix in a few tablespoons of coconut rum or citrus liqueur near the end of the freezing time.
