You are stupendously badass. The word "badass" should be part of your roller derby name.
Sorbet and other frozen stuff are weird because the sugar is a structural part of it as well as a taste part, changing how stuff freezes so you don't get ridiculously huge ice crystals that make the whole thing too hard to chew. But as one who prefers desserts not too sweet, it's tricky. I think maybe that's where adding a little booze can be helpful. My parents once borrowed an ice cream maker and made this absolutely rockin' raspberry Beaujolais sorbet that was intense and awesome and very much not too sweet... and now I want to go play with frozen desserts all day.
