Champagne Three-Citrus Sorbet

  1. Open the champagne bottle 1 to 2 hours before using. Gradually pour champagne, allowing for foaming, into a 2-quart Picher; set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium-heat, heat sugar and water. Stir until mixture comes to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand until cooled. To the champagne add all of the juices with the pulp; stir until well blended.
  3. Ice Cream Maker method: Transfer mixture to ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Freezer method: Pour the sorbet mixture into shallow container, cover and place in the freezer. When it is almost solid, mash it up with a fork and freeze again. When frozen-solid, place in a blender, add the heavy cream or yogurt (if using) and process until smooth. Cover and freeze until ready to serve.rnCan be prepared 3 days in advance.
