Ingredients

• 375 ml Cava (Spanish sparkling wine)
• 150 g Sugar
• 125 ml Water
• 50 ml Fresh lemon juice
• 75 ml Fresh orange juice
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved to create a simple syrup. This should take approximately 3-5 minutes.

Step 2

Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the simple syrup to cool to room temperature.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled simple syrup with the lemon juice, orange juice, lemon zest, and orange zest. Stir well to incorporate all ingredients.

Step 4

Slowly add the cava to the mixture, gently stirring to avoid excessive bubbling. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and place in the freezer.

Step 6

Every 30 minutes, use a fork to scrape and stir the sorbet mixture to break up any ice crystals forming. Repeat this process for about 3-4 hours, or until the sorbet reaches a smooth, scoopable texture.

Step 7

Once the sorbet is fully frozen, scoop it into serving bowls or glasses. Optionally, garnish with a twist of citrus zest or a sprig of fresh mint.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Spanish cava sorbet!
