Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pears deseeded and thinly sliced
  • ½ cup bourbon
  • 1 inch chunk of ginger chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups Sparkling Pear Zevia Celebrations or sparkling pear juice or cider

Instructions
 

  • At least 24 hours before you plan to make the sorbet, freeze the freezer bowl of your ice cream maker.
  • Place sliced pears, bourbon, ginger, and vanilla in a medium saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then remove the lid, and let simmer for another 3 minutes. Transfer to a sealable container and let chill completely in the fridge.
  • Once chilled, blend the ingredients in a food processor or blender until completely smooth. Transfer to a large bowl and add the Sparkling Pear. Stir gently to integrate and blend completely.
  • In a large bowl, gently stir the blended pear mixture and the Sparkling Pear cider until evenly blended. Assemble ice cream maker and churn sorbet base according to manufacturer’s instructions. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-proof container, cover, and freeze to set at least 4 hours. When ready to eat, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to reach peak scoopability.
