Cranberry Red Wine Sorbet

Each nook and cranny of my NYC kitchen is stuffed with every kitchen gadget imaginable. Potsticker maker? Check. Food mill? Check. Edges only brownie pan? Check. You name it, I own it. But an ice cream maker is one thing I don’t have. So when I stumbled upon a gadget-crazed version of cranberry sorbet I immediately took on the challenge of recreating the recipe, ice cream maker not included.

I used a similar process for my popular Pineapple-Agave Sorbet with Toasted Coconut. But because the season doesn’t lend itself to tropical tastes, I’ve switched up the flavors and added a red wine base. The rich red color and cranberry-orange blend are the perfect pallet-cleansing pops of color and flavor for any holiday spread.

    Delish! My favorite red wine variety is Malbec so that’s what I used. Turned out amazing. Definitely making this for our Thanksgiving dinner.
