Although the terms sorbet and sherbet are often used interchangeably, they are not exactly the same. Sorbet is a dessert made from berries, sugar syrup, and lemon juice. Sherbet is also made with fruit or berry puree, but always with dairy products (milk, cream), and sometimes eggs. Ultimately, sherbet is a cross between classic ice cream and sorbet, with a fat content of no more than 2%.
