Cucumber Munchers are a tasty, small cucumber variety, a little on the sweet side; perfect for munching right out of the garden, just like an apple. Note: Persian or English cucumber will work just fine in this recipe. <br /> <br />With above normal temperatures I was craving a chilly dessert. Sherbet, cool and refreshing, is similar to a sorbet in that they both are made with pureed fruits (in this case I've tweaked with cucumber), sugar and a liquid; however, a dairy product is added to make it sherbert. <br /> <br />This recipe is a modified version of my Wild Blackberry Sorbet, onsite, with an addition of cream; the liquid glucose, granulated sugar and alcohol used, emulsify nicely and help to lower the freezing process resulting in a consistency that, for me, always holds together beautifully. <br /> <br />Just saying: Sherbert, spelled with the extra "r" is the phonetic alternative spelling for Sherbet and is one I’ve often reverted back and forth...because that is the way I roll! ;) <br />
