Pomegranate-Persimmon Sorbet

 
Yields ~1 liter
 
Ingredients:
  • 3 c. fresh pomegranate juice
  • 1 c. water
  • 1/3 c. sugar
  • 1 c. persimmon puree (from about 6 medium-sized persimmons. The puree is best when made in a food mill to preserve the texture, but a blender works also.)
  • Juice of 1/4 lime
  • Scant 1/2 tsp. vodka
  • Pinch of salt
Directions:
  • Combine the pomegranate juice, water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil, whisking constantly.
  • After the pomegranate mixture comes to a boil, remove it from the heat and let cool. Chill in the refrigerator for a few hours.
  • After the mixture has fully chilled, whisk in the persimmon puree, lime juice, vodka and salt.
  • Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Put in a tupperware and store in the freezer for an hour before eating.
