Summer cherry sorbet
Sorbets
The long hot summer is here and I've been making sorbet with my children almost every day of the week. This luscious sorbet sings of cherries ripened in the summer sun. Lime is a natural partner with cherry as long as it doesn't steal the show; the trick is finding the right balance to allow the cherry flavor to shine. I think this sorbet does just that. NOTE: I've been experimenting with agave and am not sure if it is necessary to boil the water/agave mixture to make a syrup. I've come across some recipes that simply mix the agave in. However, when I made this recipe I boiled the syrup and so that's how I have it written. This sorbet is also best within a day or two of making it; it gets a little hard once it sits in the freezer for an extended period of time. TIP: If you are making a lot of sorbets like I have been, making the simple syrup the night before is a time saver. Doing it ahead of time ensures that my syrup is extra cold and ready for the next concoction. - gingerroot
