Sorbets are a great Shabbat afternoon treat on these long summer days. They usually take a while to eat, consuming a big part of your afternoon when usually everyone else is noshing.

They are also super refreshing due to their high water content. It’s lower in calories, rich in nutrients and minerals, and a great dairy-free option for a snack!

You do have to be careful because a lot of sorbets can have a lot of added sugars or sweeteners, making them less healthy. When you make your own at home, you can measure the exact portions and what is going in it.

Try it one Shabbat afternoon. It may turn into your favorite Shabbat afternoon treat!
