Banana and berry sorbet

Sorbet is a frozen dessert made mostly of fruits. You can make them with any kind of fruit, add any flavoring agent to it. The best part about sorbet is, they are a perfect substitute for ice-cream. Everyone these days is health-conscious. Therefore you can have these desserts every day with your entire family without worrying much about your health. Moreover, I am sure your kids will love it. All I had in my kitchen were bananas which had become almost completely gone black from outside and some berries. Hence, I decided to make a sorbet out of them.
