Refreshing summertime flavor is how I would describe this treat. This is the first sorbet I have made and it was so simple to put together. Cut some fruit, make some simple syrup, and chill it. Super easy until I had to spin it in the ice cream maker. The instruction was to spin it until it looked like soft whip cream. If spun too long it would be crumbly. Mine was crumbly. I spun it too long, but it never quite matched the description in the book.
So, the sorbet was crumbly but it was good.
After they tried the sorbet, I tasked my co-teachers to complete the statement I wish I were eating this…
I wish I was eating this on a black sand beach in Hawaii.
I wish I was eating this after a hot day cutting the grass and doing yard work.
I wish I was eating this on the beach in Santa Cruz or Monterey, CA.
I wish I was eating this on my two-year anniversary vacation with my husband in Old Salem, NC under the Carolina blue sky.
I wish I was eating this on the beach sitting under an umbrella wiggling my toes in the sand.
I wish I was eating this by the pool with a book in my hand, a floppy hat on my head and the smell of a grill in the background.
Well, even if we can’t get away, I think a spoonful of this sorbet gave us a taste of vacation.
