MULBERRY SORBET
Makes about 1 quartIngredients:
· 1 pound mulberries, about 4 cups
· 1/2 cup sugar
· 2/3 cup water
· 2 Tablespoons Chambord (optional)
· 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
· Pinch salt
1) Puree the cleaned mulberries in a blender until smooth (I leave the green stems on). Add the sugar, water, Chambord, and lemon juice and blend until the sugar dissolves. (Blending the berries by themselves ensures that the stems and pulp break down completely.)
2) Chill the mixture overnight or place in freezer and stir every 15 minutes until very cold.
3) Freeze in ice cream maker. Depending on the model, sorbet may ride up the sides of your ice cream maker more than ice cream, so keep an eye on it and push the mixture down with a spoon if it tries to crawl out. This is truly a thing of beauty. The color and the flavor is amazing. I had to take it outside in the sun to snap a few pictures so you could appreciate the color and texture.
I am thinking this would make a fantastic cocktail as well. Enjoy!
