Mulberry or Blackberry Sorbet

This recipe makes a smooth, deep purple sorbet sexed up a bit by the addition of a little liqueur. I make this sorbet with wild mulberries from a tree near my house, but blackberries would be just as good, as would black raspberries. As for the liqueur, try to find cassis, which is made from black currants. Most liquor stores carry it. I happen to have homemade elderberry liqueur around in the house, however, so I used that instead. You also could use Port wine.

Instructions

  1. If you are using mulberries, pick off all the green stems from the berries.
  2. Bring the sugar and water to a boil over medium heat. Let it simmer gently for 3-4 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it cool a bit.
  3. Meanwhile, Put the berries in a blender. Pour the syrup over them while it is warm but not hot. Buzz into a puree.
  4. Push the berries through a fine-meshed sieve set over a bowl using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon; this removes a lot of the seeds and stems.
  5. Pour the liquor into the bowl with the pureed berries and chill in the fridge for an hour or so.
  6. Pour into your ice cream maker and follow its directions.
