Mix-And-Match Fruit Sorbet
- 1 lb fig, chopped
- 12 lb peach, chopped
- 12 lb nectarine, chopped
- 9 (1 g) packets sugar substitute
- 3 tablespoons peach vodka
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 3 tablespoons water
- 12 cup water
- Combine the all ingredients, EXCEPT the sugar substitute, in a food processor; process until pureed.
- Taste the mixture; if it seems sweet enough to you, proceed to step 3.
- If not, add 3 packets.
- Repeat until the sweetness is to your liking, then transfer mixture to a 13x9 inch baking dish.
- Freeze for one hour.
- Break it up every hour with a potato masher, then spread out into a uniform layer.
- Repeat three times.
- Break the frozen mixture up and place it in a food processor in two batches; process until smooth.
- Transfer the sorbet to a plastic storage container; seal tightly, and freeze until ready to serve.
- This recipe works for many tropical and fleshy fruits, such as peaches, mangoes, papaya, etc.
- Firmer fruits, like apples and pears, should be cooked first to get a softer texture more amenable to sorbets.
- Fruits like lemons, oranges, plums and watermelons are better made into granitas.
- You can use any spirit you like to flavor the sorbet, but make sure it matches well with the fruits you choose.
- Also, the first four fluids come to 1/2 cup.
- The optimal amount of alcohol to use is 312/ABV teaspoons.
- Peach vodka is 35% ABV, so that comes to approximately 9 teaspoons or 3 tablespoons.
- Add other non-alcoholic liquid flavorants as desired until you reach 1/2 cup.
- In the end, the sorbet will have < 1% ABV.
