If you eat a lot of ice cream, try moving to lighter sorbets for the summer. The pure flavors are more in keeping with the spirit of the summer, especially if you buy artisan flavors bursting with seasonal fresh fruit. Sorbet has fewer calories, and the absence of milk or cream makes it fat-free and cholesterol-free (although some products are milk sherbets, made with a bit of dairy—read the label). Plus, the pretty colors look jewel-like when served in a martini glass or wine goblet.
