Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 120 milliliters Fresh orange juice
- 150 milliliters Cava (sparkling wine)
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 milliliters Water
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Wash and hull the strawberries, then place them in a blender or food processor.
Add the fresh orange juice and blend until the mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove the seeds, pressing down with the back of a spoon. Discard any solids.
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved to create a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
Stir the cooled simple syrup, Cava, and lemon juice into the strawberry and orange mixture until fully combined.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it achieves a smooth, sorbet texture.
Transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Serve the sorbet in dessert bowls or cones and garnish with fresh mint leaves or orange zest, if desired. Enjoy!
