Is sorbet the same as sherbet?

Name: Mango Sorbet
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 70 min
Ingredients: 4 cups frozen mango (cubed or cut into large chunks); 2 tbsp agave nectar; 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice (optional)

Question

Accepted Answer

No, sorbet and sherbet are two different frozen desserts. Both are made from blended fruit or fruit juice and sweetener, though sherbet has added dairy, cream, or buttermilk, making it creamier, richer, and not vegan-friendly (as this recipe for mango sorbet is).
