Lime Sherbet

Sherbet (frozen dessert)

Sherbet, sometimes referred to as sherbert, is a frozen dessert made from water, sugar, a dairy product such as cream or milk, and a flavoring – typically fruit juice or purée, wine, liqueur, or occasionally non-fruit flavors such as vanilla, chocolate, or peppermint. It is similar to, but distinct from, sorbet, which lacks dairy. Sherbet has 1%–2% milkfat, much less than ice cream.

Sherbet (powder)

Sherbet, also called Sherbert or Soda powder, is a fizzy, sweet powdered sugar, usually eaten by dipping a lollipop or liquorice stick, using a small spoon, or licking it from a finger.

Lime (color)

Lime is a color that is a shade of yellow-green, so named because it is a representation of the color of the citrus fruit lime. It is the color that is in between the web color chartreuse and yellow on the color wheel. Alternate names for this color included yellow-green, lemon-lime, lime green, or bitter lime.
