How to Make Summer Cherry Sorbet
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture reaches a simmer. Continue to simmer until you have 1 ¼ cups of simple syrup (approximately 5-7 minutes).
- While the simple syrup simmers, add 2 cups of pitted fresh sour cherries to a blender. Puree until completely smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds and pulp, reserving the cherry juice.
- In a medium bowl, combine the 1 ¼ cups of simple syrup and the strained cherry juice. Stir well to combine. Cover and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes 20-30 minutes.
- For immediate enjoyment, serve the sorbet immediately. For a firmer consistency, scoop the sorbet into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Garnish with fresh mint or a cherry for an extra touch of elegance. Enjoy!
