Hello, everyone! It is summer and it is officially the frozen dessert season. In today’s blog post, I have another frozen dessert recipe with coconuts to share-the coconut sorbet recipe! The coconut lime sorbet recipe I shared with you last time was very unique with its sweet and sour flavor combined with the nutty coconut flavor. This coconut sorbet is also quite distinctive; it is made primarily with coconut water and concentrated on the coconut flavor. I was surprised to see many people wanting the lighter taste of coconut water rather than creamy coconut milk or cream. That’s great! I also love the refreshing taste of coconut water.
Let’s get started with the introduction to the coconut sorbet recipe.

2. Equipment Needed: Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker Review
I got my Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker about a year ago, and needless to say, I use it often and love it! It makes really good ice cream in such a short period of time, but there are some cons to having it, like the pretty big noise it makes. If you are interested, read my detailed Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker review here.

My Ice Cream Maker Pick
1. Ninja NC501 CREAMi Delux 11-in-1 Ice Cream Maker
This is the latest model of the Ninja Creami ice cream maker. You can choose 11 settings, from scoopable to drinkable frozen treat options.
2. Ninja NC301 CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
If you are still not quite sure about the Ninja Creami Deluxe, there is an older and less expensive version. It has seven one-touch programs like ice cream, gelato, mix-ins, milkshakes, sorbet, smoothie bowls, and more.
Benefits of Homemade Coconut Sorbet
1. Packed with Coconut Flavors & Nutrients
Coconut water is a delicious and nutritious beverage with many health benefits. Made with coconut water, this homemade coconut sorbet is packed with coconut flavors and nutrients. Read more about the potential health benefits of coconut water below.
2. Vegan and Dairy-Free
Sorbet is naturally vegan and dairy-free, whereas sherbets can contain some dairy. But one of the great things about coconut recipes is that you create a creamy, rich flavor and texture with just coconuts! (Although, some coconut recipes still contain dairy or animal products.)
So if you are vegan, lactose-intolerant, or health-conscious, this coconut sorbet is the perfect dessert for you!
Before we get into the delicious, refreshing, and light coconut sorbet recipe, let’s look at how healthy coconut water is.
Health Benefits of Coconut Water
If you are looking for a natural drink, coconut water can be a great choice to hydrate!
- Balancing Electrolyte: Coconut water has high levels of potassium, calcium, and magnesium that help the body maintain electrolyte balance. So coconut water makes it a natural sports drink!
- Regulating Blood Pressure: Coconut water helps reduce blood pressure and may help with heart health.
- Kidney Health: Drinking coconut water regularly might help prevent kidney stones.

Product Recommendation for Coconut Sorbet
1. Coconut Extract
My Pick
Coconut milk or cream has a lot of fat and flavor, but using mostly coconut water in the recipe might not give you sufficient coconut flavor. Use this coconut extract to make the flavorful yet light and refreshing coconut sorbet!
2. Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol
My Pick
WHOLE EARTH Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol, Plant-Based Sugar Alternative, 12 Ounce Pouch
To make creamy sorbet, you need sugar. But instead of using regular sugar, I recommend using a healthy sweetener that only adds sweetness to bring out the best flavor of the ingredients and doesn’t spike up your blood sugar.
