How To Make cranberry sherbet

  • Step 1
    Combine buttermilk, lemon juice, sugar and Karo syrup in a bowl. Mix well. Freeze until it turns to mush.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, place the cranberries, 1 tsp sugar and lemon zest in a small saucepan. Add a little bit of water and cook till the berries explode. Cool and mash berries.
  • Step 3
    Remove the base mix from the freezer and beat by hand until smooth. Add the berries and again beat by hand until incorporated. Return to freezer and freeze until firm.
  • Step 4
    When you serve, each portion should have on top a fresh violet, or candied violet, or violet leaf, or candied rosebud, or tiny piece of candied ginger, or a mint leaf, or a lavender leaf, or a hundred dollar bill wadded up in gold foil. Just enjoy...
