MULLED WINE AND CRANBERRY SORBET

This sorbet is always a great addition to our Nantucket Stroll Weekend menu. I love serving it alongside my Grandma Fern's hazelnut shortbreads, or her famous molasses cookies.

Time 1h45m

Yield 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups fresh cranberries
2 1/2 cups red wine (any red wine is fine, but do shy away from one with too much alcohol, as it may affect the freezing process)
4 whole allspice
2 cinnamon sticks
2 whole cloves
1 orange, zest peeled in strips and juice
1 vanilla bean

Steps:

  • Combine the cranberries, red wine, 2 1/2 cups water, allspice, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, orange zest, orange juice and vanilla bean in a saucepot. Cook over medium heat for 20 to 30 minutes. The cranberries will have become very soft and the liquid will be reduced by about 20-percent.
  • Strain the mixture through a sieve fine enough to catch the spices, pushing lightly to extract some of the cranberry pulp. Chill the sorbet mixture thoroughly and spin in an ice cream maker until frozen.

A cool taste of Christmas and perfect for a Christmas 'down under' (where it's hot). Also great for a northern hemisphere celebration as it's a palate cleanser after all of those rich festive dishes. Make this one the day before. Time stated does not include freezing time.
