This is an icy cold summer treat, great mango and passion fruit, and surprisingly not too sweet. I'd say it falls midway between a sorbet and an ice cream in terms of flavor, since there is both juice and creamer (I used soy) in the base.

Made this with Peach Nectar, as I couldn't find any Passion Fruit Nectar. Came out quite tasty and delicious!

I'm really interested in this recipe! I'd like to adapt it to a diabetic diet. I'd use fat-free half and half and need to figure out how to make a simple syrup using Splenda. I don't care for Splenda cooked, so I'll have to figure out how to sweeten it. I've got agave nectar and might try that. Any suggestions?

This looks delicious - I love mango and passionfruit. I would serve it for a special occasion. I guess I am not sure what is "light" about it though - with 1.5 cups of half and half and a cup of sugar? I am going to try it with agave nectar, and maybe cut the half and half with some almond milk.
