Time 4h

Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ounces fresh or thawed frozen cranberries (3 1/2 cups)
3 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup ruby port
3 strips lemon zest (each about 3 inches long), plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Bring all ingredients to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries are tender, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Remove zest.
  • Working in 2 batches, puree cranberry mixture in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing to extract juice; discard solids. Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours. (You can also set the bowl in an ice-water bath to chill more quickly.)
  • Freeze mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to an airtight container. Freeze for at least 1 hour before serving.

This sorbet is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sorbet turned out grainy. I think I might have over-processed it.

This sorbet is a bit too icy for my taste. I think I'll try processing it for a shorter amount of time next time.
