Ingredients:
4 cups of ripe Hexco Grapes (any variety of your choice)
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1/4 cup of water
2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice
Instructions:
- Rinse the grapes thoroughly under cold water and remove any stems.
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Let the syrup simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove it from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Place the grapes in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Strain the grape puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds and pulp, if desired.
- In a large bowl, combine the strained grape puree with the cooled sugar syrup and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Once churned, transfer the sorbet to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
- Serve the grape sorbet in chilled bowls or cones and enjoy the refreshing burst of flavor!
Tips: For an extra burst of flavour, you can add a splash of your favourite liqueur, such as Limoncello or Grand Marnier, to the mixture before churning.
