sherbet
Icy fruit treat
Sherbet is a frozen dessert similar to sorbet but containing a small amount of dairy, giving it a slightly creamier texture while remaining lighter than ice cream.
In American usage, it typically refers to this fruit-flavored treat, often served as a palate cleanser or light dessert.
British usage extends to a fizzy powder candy that dissolves on the tongue.
The word is sometimes mispronounced "sherbert" with an extra r, though this spelling is considered nonstandard.
