Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams rhubarb stalks
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 1 liter water
- 2 tablespoons rose water
- 6 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 3 slices lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the rhubarb stalks thoroughly and chop them into small pieces (about 1-inch chunks).
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, water, and granulated sugar.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
Allow the rhubarb mixture to cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the rhubarb is soft and beginning to break down.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher, pressing gently to extract the liquid. Discard the solids.
Stir the rose water into the strained rhubarb liquid.
Chill the sherbet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
To serve, pour the chilled rhubarb sherbet into glasses over ice cubes. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and optional lemon slices.
Enjoy your Sharbate Rivas!
