Instructions: Use fresh or frozen unsweetened berries.

In a 2 cup measure stir the sugar into warm water till dissolved. In a blender container or food processor bowl combine desired fruit, sugar mixture, and lemon juice. Cover and blend or process till mixture is nearly smooth. Pour into a 9 x 5 x 3" loaf pan. Cover and freeze for 4 to 5 hours or till almost firm.

Transfer the frozen mixture to a chilled large mixer bowl. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes or till fluffy. Return fruit mixture to loaf pan. Cover and freeze for 6 hours or till firm.

Let the fruit ice stand about 20 minutes at room temperature before serving. To serve, use an ice-cream scoop and scrape along ice to form a scoop. If desired, garnish each serving with mint sprig or fresh berries.

Makes 6 servings.
