Tropical Fruit Sorbet
- About 18 passion fruit (enough to yield 1 cup juice) or substitute 1 cup defrosted frozen puree (available in Hispanic markets)
- 2 cups orange juice, strained
- 1 cup Simple Syrup
- 1 tablespoon vodka
- Halve the passion fruits and scoop out the pulp with the seeds.
- Using the metal blade of a food processor, add the pulp and pulse on and off 2 or 3 times.
- (Be careful, overpulsing will darken the pulp.)
- Pour the pulp into a fine wire strainer set over a bowl.
- Press down on the mixture with a rubber spatula and discard the seeds.
- Combine the passion fruit juice, orange juice, and simple syrup.
- Taste for sweetness, adding more syrup as needed.
- Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
- Pour the vodka into the bottom of a prechilled container of an electric ice-cream maker.
- (The vodka helps keep the sorbet smooth and discourages it from sticking to the bottom of the container.)
- Pour in the fruit mixture.
- Freeze the sorbet according to the manufacturers directions.
