Grape sorbet is massively underrated! It's really sophisticated and a great choice for a dinner party or a cool treat to enjoy on a hot afternoon.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2.5 lb grapes (I used Sable, but you can use Concord or any sweet, fragrant grape) weighted after stems removed
  • ¼ cup water
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup (light corn syrup)
  • 4 tbsp vodka (or rose) optional

Instructions
 

  • In a non-reactive pot (if you have one), mix the grapes and the water. Heat until the grapes are soft, stirring occasionally. This takes about 20 minutes.
  • Using small batches, pour the grapes into a fine-mesh sieve or strainer and push all the juice out you can. I use a potato masher! You end up with about 2 1/2 cups of grape juice.
  • Add sugar and golden syrup. Add vodka or wine if you are using.
  • Mix until all combined.
  • Transfer to a bowl and chill in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
  • When ready, take it out of the fridge and make it in an ice cream maker according to manufacture's instructions.
  • Serve immediately or put in freezer to chill.
