Peach Sorbet

Store in an airtight container in the freezer. Sorbet can become very hard; let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.

For a smoother texture, add a tablespoon of vodka or light corn syrup to the base before freezing; this helps prevent large ice crystals.

Taste the peach puree before adding sugar, as the sweetness of peaches can vary greatly.

Use ripe, flavorful peaches for the best taste.

Fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries)

Mint leaves

A drizzle of honey or balsamic glaze

Served alongside grilled chicken or pork
