It's mango season, yippee! The exotic taste of fresh mango is the star in this four-ingredient, no-churn Mango Coconut Sorbet. It's so easy and delicious, and the perfect frozen treat for the hot summer days ahead. 😎
Refreshing and luxurious, this Easy Mango Coconut Sorbet can be made in a blender, no ice cream maker required!
How to make Mango Coconut Sorbet:
- You can do things the hard way: Buy a few mangos, peel them, take out the pit without slicing open your finger, cut the mango into chunks and then freeze them. OR, you can go to Trader Joe's, or another grocery store, and buy a frozen package of mango chunks. (Use about ¾ of the package.)
- Buy a can of coconut milk (full fat works best in this sorbet recipe), these cans are available everywhere now! (Use ½ cup of coconut milk.)
- Make some simple syrup. So easy, see recipe below! (You will need ¼ cup of simple syrup. Store the rest in your fridge for another time.)
- Zest one lime and a little extra for garnish.
- Throw all of these ingredients into a high-powered blender until smooth and pour into a loaf pan, smoothing out the top.
- Freeze for at least two hours. Remove from the freezer and let sit for 10 minutes before scooping. Garnish with extra lime zest and some fresh mint!
I purchased both the coconut milk and frozen mango chunks at Trader Joe's. I've also seen them at Whole Foods and Kroger!
Add in the zest from one lime into the mango mixture. I saved a tiny bit for the garnish.
Use a high-powered blender, like my Ninja, to blend the mango mixture until smooth.
Place the mango mixture into a loaf pan and smooth out the top with a rubber spatula.
Freeze the mango mixture for at least 2 hours and use an ice cream scoop for serving!

HOW TO MAKE SIMPLE SYRUP
Simple syrup is a commonly used ingredient in many cocktails and other drink recipes. It’s great to have on hand!
- Pour equal parts water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat (ie. 1 cup sugar / 1 cup water).
- Stir continuously until sugar dissolves into the water. Cool completely before using.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to one month.
TIPS & TRICKS
- Make it easy on yourself and get a bag of frozen mango chunks.
- Use the full fat coconut milk for a creamier consistency.
- Let the simple syrup cool to room temperature before using (or make ahead and store in the fridge!)
- Use a high-powered blender for the smoothest sorbet.
- Freeze for at least 2 hours or more before serving!

Christy Kubinski says
Does this actually need the simple syrup at all? It seems like added sugar for the sake of added sugar. Which I'd rather avoid.
Asian Inspired Eats says
Hi Christy! You can certainly omit the simple syrup, or use less than indicated. It's totally up to you and your tastebuds!
Abbey says
Frozen mango bags are different in sizes.. what is the quantity in grams please?
Asian Caucasian says
Hey Abbey! Approximately 650 grams (or a little less than 1 pound). Hope that helps!
Brian Jones says
This was so good, super simple and had such a wonderful refreshing taste.
Asian Caucasian says
So glad you enjoyed it! Can't wait to make another batch of this sorbet for the next family picnic!
Dao Nguyen-howell says
Can I substitute honey or maple syrup instead of simple syrup? Or not at all as mango is already sweet?
Asian Caucasian says
You could try honey, but simple syrup is probably the best option. It's so easy to make simple syrup -- one part sugar, one part water.
