Chef notes

Desserts don't get much simpler than this, and the flavor is as bright and vivid as the color. Adding a tablespoon of vodka to the berry mixture keeps the sorbetto from freezing completely, so it's still soft enough to scoop if you make it ahead of time.

Technique tip: If storing this in your freezer, make sure to transfer it to an airtight container so it keeps.

Swap option: You can swap your favorite frozen fruit in lieu of berries. Also, if serving this dish to kids, leave out the vodka.

Ingredients

  • 1 10-ounce bag frozen mixed berries
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon vodka (optional)

Preparation

1.

Combine the berries, maple syrup, salt and vodka, if using, in a blender.

2.

Pulse the mixture to create a coarse puree.

3.

Scrape down the sides of the blender with a rubber spatula.

4.

Continue to pulse, scraping down the sides as needed, until smooth and scoopable.

5.

Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for up to a week.
