For the last recipe in this little Ninja Creami mini series, I thought I'd share one of our family favorites. My son is an absolute mango nut, so this is his favorite Ninja Creami ice cream recipe!
Why You'll Love This Recipe
- Only 2 ingredients make this one of the simplest recipe I've ever put on the blog. They're both shelf-stable ingredients, so they're really easy to keep on hand!
- This recipe is as easy as mixing and freezing. If you can stir and press buttons, you can make this one.
- This is a dairy-free, vegan dessert that's low fat and high flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen mango chunks - I like frozen for the convenience, but if you want to use fresh mango go for it!
- 11.3oz mango nectar (1 can) - This can be found in the international aisle at the grocery store. If you can't find it for some reason, sweetened mango juice or orange juice works too.
How to Make Ninja Creami Mango Sorbet
- MAKE SORBET BASE. Add mango chunks to the Ninja Creami pint container. Pour mango nectar over the top, reserving about ¼ cup, and ensure the mango is fully covered (no chunks sticking out).
- FREEZE for at least 24 hours.
- SPIN. When ready to serve, blend the pint using the "sorbet" function. Remove, add the remaining ¼ cup of nectar (or water if needed), and "re-spin."
Tip: Use Different Fruits!
This recipe can be made with any fruit. You'll just use a combination of frozen fruit and sweetened fruit juice. It's great with pineapple, berries, or grapes.
Want a shortcut? Just use a 20oz can of fruit in light syrup for your base. Dump it in the pint container, freeze, and spin on the sorbet mode. Easy peasy!

Leftovers & Storage
If you have leftovers, seal the pint container with the lid and place it back in the freezer. To serve again, spin once on the sorbet button, add ¼ cup mango nectar or another juice, and run the "re-spin" function.
It’s best not to refreeze more than once, as the texture can become less smooth and the flavors may weaken.
Useful Tips & Tricks
- If you have canned diced mango in light syrup at your grocery store, you can use that instead - no mango nectar needed! Just dump the whole can in a pint container and freeze. It's kind of hard to find, so I went with frozen mango instead.
- We like to batch prep 4-6 pints at a time, which isn’t doable with just the 2 containers that come with your machine. We grabbed a few extra pint containers - worth every penny!
- If you’re batch prepping, be sure to label the flavors...it’s surprisingly tricky to tell them apart once frozen. Simply label with a piece of tape written on with a Sharpie.
I hope this sorbet cools you off in those hot summer months! If you give it a try, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Just leave a comment and rating below.

Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen mango chunks
- 11.3 oz mango nectar
Instructions
- Add mango chunks to the Ninja Creami pint container. Pour mango nectar over the top, reserving about ¼ cup, ensuring the nectar covers the frozen mango completely (nothing sticking out of the top of the mixture).
- Freeze for at least 24 hours.
- When ready to serve, spin the pint container using the sorbet function on your machine. Remove, add the remaining ¼ cup of nectar (use water if needed), and complete a second spin using the re-spin button.
Notes
- Leftovers: Freeze with the lid on. To serve, spin on "sorbet," add ¼ cup water or nectar, and "re-spin."
- Refreezing: Avoid refreezing more than once - it loses smoothness and flavor.
- Canned Mango Tip: Use canned diced mango instead - no nectar needed. Just freeze the whole can in a pint.
- Batch Prepping: Label flavors when batch prepping - it’s hard to tell them apart frozen. Wet erase markers wash off easily.
