    This pretty pink Champagne sorbet recipe is the perfect dessert for the holidays or any occasion.

    Grape and Pink Champagne Sorbet

    Each week I look forward to seeing what goodies we receive in our farmers boxes.

    There are all the usual things like potatoes, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes and onions. But it's the seasonal items I look forward to seeing.

    Prior to signing up for our farmers boxes I used to purchase particular ingredients that I needed for recipes I wanted to make.

    But nowadays it's my farmers boxes that guide my cooking. I love to look for new and interesting ways to use the ingredients I'm given.

    It's a bit like a MasterChef mystery box challenge I suppose.

    an overflowing bag of black grapes

    So last week when I received an overflowing bag of black grapes my mind started churning with ideas.

    Of course, we could simply eat the grapes as is. But for some reason, black grapes don't appeal to me as much as their green cousins.  

    After looking for inspiration I remembered the stunningly beautiful Concord Grape Sorbet recipe I came across a few weeks ago.  

    Inspired, but wanting to go in a slightly different direction, I settled on a Grape and Pink Champagne Sorbet.

    Anything with Champagne in it can't be a bad thing, can it?  

    And well, this sorbet is really good.

    It's not overly sweet, and it's light and is scoopable straight from the freezer.

    The latter item is particularly important to me because, being the impatient person I am, I don't like to have to wait before I scoop my sorbets or ice creams.

    So tell me, is your cooking inspired by ingredients or particular recipes you want to try or a little of both?

    Ingredients

    • 550 g of black seedless grapes
    • 1 cup of pink Champagne or regular Champagne
    • ½ cup of sugar
    • juice of 1 lemon
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Place the grapes, pink Champagne and sugar in a saucepan over a medium low heat. Bring to the boil and reduce to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until the skins of the grapes split.
    • Drain through a fine sieve into a large jug or bowl and use the back of a wooden spoon to press the grapes to release their juices. Extract as much from the grapes as you can. Cover the mixture and refrigerate until completely cold. I usually leave the mixture overnight.
    • Remove the mixture from the refrigerator and add the lemon juice and pour into your ice cream maker and churn according to your manufacturers instructions. The longer you churn the sorbet the lighter in colour it will become.

    Notes

    Once you have cooked the grapes you will notice the mixture is incredibly dark. Don't worry because the sorbet will lighten when it is churned in the ice cream maker.

      I didn't have concord grapes or pink champagne, but it still came out fantastic (with the same punchy colour) using black seedless grapes and sparkling shiraz. Yum!

      I am confused on what type of grapes to use, the regular dark ones from grocery store or can you use concord grapes?

        Hi Sandra, you can use either ordinary black grapes or concord 🙂
