Grapefruit Campari Sorbet

Libations used: 1/4 cup Campari
Libations left over: none, but that just means you'll have to wait until the sorbet is done...
I get cravings for sorbet on a regular basis, and after making Pear Riesling Sorbet in April, love keeping a homemade batch of lush-inspired sorbet in the freezer at all times.  It's the perfect palate cleanser and the Lush Chef's mom will be proud that she's getting enough fruit in her diet...

This Grapefruit Campari Sorbet is from David Lebovitz's blog, and is the perfect dessert to follow a night of grilling outdoors.  I wish I was grilling outdoors in Paris like David, but we can't have everything in life, now can we?  You don't need an ice cream or sorbet machine to make this - just give the mixture a whirl in your blender or food processor and chill again for about 8 hours.

Grapefruit Campari Sorbet - makes about 1 quart

• 3 cups freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice

- Warm 1 cup of grapefruit juice with the sugar over low heat, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from heat and stir in the rest of the grapefruit juice and Campari.

- After mixture is frozen, puree in a blender or food processor until smooth.
- Put it back in the freezer for about 8 hours to firm up again.
