Store sherbet in the freezer at a consistent temperature of 0°F (-18°C) or lower to maintain its texture and flavor. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent freezer burn and absorption of odors from other foods. For best results, consume within 2-3 months of purchase or preparation. Allow it to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for optimal scoopability.
