Temperatures for this weekend are forecast to be well into the 80s and a new cocktail recipe I made last night for a dinner party is the perfect way to cool down.Sgroppino (a traditional Venetian after-dinner cocktail)
Makes 2 servings
4 scoops lemon sorbet (I used sherbet)
2 ounces chilled vodka, citrus vodka or limoncello (Italian lemon liqueur)
2 ounces Prosecco or other sparkling wine or champagne
2 sprigs fresh mint
Blend lemon sorbet on low speed and pour in vodka or lemon liqueur in a slow stream. Add Prosecco or champagne. Pour into chilled martini glasses and serve garnished with a sprig of mint.
