This Wild Wineberry Sorbet is just sweet enough, perfectly tart, so refreshing and incredibly simple to make with just 3 main ingredients!

  • Total Time: 10 minutes plus churning
  • Yield: about 3 cups

Ingredients

  • 4 cups wineberries
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 cup simple syrup (see notes)
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

Combine berries and lemon juice in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain this mixture through a fine sieve to remove seeds. Add 1 cup simple syrup and salt to wineberry mixture. 

Chill in refrigerator until completely cool. Process in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.- It takes about 30 minutes in my Cuisinart Ice-100 Ice Cream Maker

Notes

Simple syrup is equal parts water and sugar boiled until the sugar has dissolved. So 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water. This will make more than you need for this recipe but you can use the extra in cocktails or iced tea/coffee. I have found that 3/4 cup water to 3/4 cup sugar gets pretty close to 1 cup simple syrup with just a tiny bit extra. 

If you don't have an ice cream maker you can make this in the style of a granita. It will be icier, but still really delicious. Once you make the sorbet mixture, place it in the freezer in a baking dish or other shallow container. Every 30 minutes or so, remove sorbet pan from freezer and use a fork to break up, stir, and smash chunks of sorbet. Smooth and even out sorbet before returning to the freezer. Repeat stirring process until mixture is complete frozen. Make sure to really smash after scraping to get a more creamy, less icy texture.
