How to Make Melon Sorbet
- Chop 4 cups of fresh melon (cantaloupe, honeydew, or a mix) into chunks.
- Puree the chopped melon in a blender until completely smooth.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup white wine (optional, can substitute with water or melon juice). Simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let the sugar syrup cool slightly.
- Gently stir the cooled sugar syrup into the melon puree.
- Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
- Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before serving. Puree again in the blender for a smoother consistency.
- Return to the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up slightly before serving.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a sprig of melon and serve immediately.
