How to Make Riesling Sorbet

  1. Combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Bring the sugar syrup to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled sugar syrup, 1 ½ cups Riesling wine, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
  5. To speed up the cooling process, place the bowl in a larger bowl filled with ice and stir occasionally for about 15 minutes until completely chilled.
  6. Once chilled, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any impurities.
  7. Pour the strained mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually about 20-25 minutes).
  8. Transfer the churned sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to harden completely.
  9. Serve the Riesling Sorbet in elegant bowls or glasses. Garnish with fresh berries or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance.
