Champagne Sorbet Recipe

A chilled sorbet is a great treat for your Valentine and easy to make!

~ Ingredients
2 cups water
1 cup granulated sugar (sugar crystals)
1 1/4 cup champagne
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp orange juice

~ Method

Heat water and sugar in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves.

Keep stirring the syrup and bring to a boil.

Let it simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes without stirring.

Take sugar syrup off the fire and let it cool.

Pour into a tall glass. Add champagne, lemon juice and orange juice into the sugar syrup.

Freeze this mixture until ice crystals begin to form.

Remove from the freezer.

Beat the mixture well in a blender, till all the ice crystals break down.

Put it back into the freezer until it firms.

Remove from freezer and place it in your refrigerator 20 minutes before serving.

It is best served in a martini glass or a champagne tulip. Place a strawberry or cherry on top of the mix.

Want a low cost option? Replace champagne with white wine.

Don't want alcohol? Do away with it altogether!
