Ingredients

¾ pound frozen strawberries
¾ pound frozen mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
1.125 cups water (1 cup + 2 tablespoons)
.9375 cup granulated sugar (¾ cup + 3 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons vodka optional

Instructions

In a high powered blender or food processor, add your frozen berries. Set aside for berries to defrost at room temperature.
In a medium saucepan, add water and sugar. Heat over high heat and stir or whisk occasionally until sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside and allow to cool (45 minutes - 1 hour.
Add cooled simple syrup to the blender. Blend until completely smooth. (30 seconds at low speed, 30 seconds at medium speed and 1 -2 minutes at high speed)
Strain liquid using a fine mesh strainer (to remove the seeds) into a large bowl. Use the back of a spoon to help liquid pass through. Add vodka to the mixture and whisk until combined.
Follow the instructions included with your ice cream maker and churn sorbet.
Pour sorbet into your ice cream container and freeze for 6-8 hours to overnight. Before serving, let it sit out at room temperature for about 5 minutes, scoop and enjoy!

Notes

A little bit of alcohol goes a long way! - Because alcohol doesn't freeze, just adding a tablespoon (or two) to our sorbet base means our sorbet doesn't freeze solid and makes it perfect for scooping.

Use for a boozy brunch cocktail - Scoop the sorbet into champagne flutes or coups and top it with Prosecco or champagne for a special brunch treat!
