Sherbet, a Western term for a frozen dessert like sorbet, but containing a small amount of milkfat. For Americans, sherbet is the more widely known term and typically designates a fruity flavored frozen dairy product with a butterfat content between 1% and 2%. Sorbet, on the other hand, is considered by Americans to be a fruity frozen product with no dairy content, similar to Italian ice. (Wikipedia)
