Ingredients

  • 1 cup red wine
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine the red wine, water, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. This will create a simple syrup infused with red wine.
  2. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the red wine syrup cool to room temperature.
  3. Once the syrup has cooled, stir in the freshly squeezed orange juice and lemon juice.
  4. Pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container and place it in the freezer.
  5. Every 30 minutes, use a fork to scrape and stir the freezing sorbet mixture, breaking up any ice crystals. Repeat this process for about 3-4 hours, or until the sorbet is firm and scoopable.
  6. Serve the red wine and citrus sorbet in chilled glasses or bowls, garnished with a slice of orange or lemon, if desired.
