Notes :
- This sorbet will keep for about 4 days in the freezer. If it becomes hard let it sit on the counter for 10 minutes, then use the edge of an ice cream scoop to break it into chunks. Warm a metal spoon under hot water and use the back of the spoon to smooth the sorbet back into its original shape.

Awww I'm envious of the sorbet. It is so cute. I wanna have something like that which never melts. It really is adorable.
This recipe was way too sweet. I would suggest trying this with about 1/3 of the simple syrup, or less if you have a sweet enough melon.
