    Did you ever try a fruit for the first time and instantly knew you're in trouble? That's my experience with red grapes. Whenever I start munching on them, I find myself in a position where I can't stop. Needless to say that a lot of the grapes I used for this amazing red grape sorbet didn't make it into the dessert. It's one of the main reasons why I advise people to always buy multiple packages of red grapes if they can because they are simply that good. There's no need to explain further why I chose these little rascals as the main ingredient for one of the most delicious sorbets I've ever made, or do I?

    Red Grape Sorbet

    Grapes have been cultivated for over 5000 years and for a good reason. They are beautiful fruits that come in clusters of snack-sized bites. No need to peel, cut or getting your hands messy.All they need is a rinse, and you are ready to dive into them. If you are super fussy, you can even get seedless grapes, and they do come in many different colours and flavours.

    Red Grape Sorbet

    Personally, I prefer the darker varieties. They have a deeper and sweeter flavour that translates very well into frozen desserts. I added a little bit of agave to elevate the flavour, but if your grapes are perfectly ripe, there is no need to do so, unless you enjoy sugary sweet desserts. In any case, this is a wonderfully delicious dessert with a striking colour. I tend to keep it very simple when it comes to serving this red grape sorbet and just add a few fresh fruits.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 1.25 kg red grapes very ripe
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 3 tablespoon agave - optional, depending on the sweetness of the grapes
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions
     

    • Wash and juice your grapes. Alternatively, you can blitz them in a blender until they fall apart and strain them through a sieve and discard the skin and seeds. You should be left with approximately 1L (4 cups) of juice.

    • Pour the grape juice, lemon and agave, if you decide to use it into an ice cream machine and process it.

    • Transfer to a freezer friendly dish and freeze for another 1-3 hours before serving if you want a scoopable sorbet.

    Notes

    Nutritional value includes the optional agave.
    If You don't have an ice cream machine then you can also pour the fruit juice into a freezer friendly dish and place it as it is in the freezer. Set a timer and give it a good stir every 30 minutes until it is frozen.

        I don't like sugar-laden sorbets either. They have to be refreshing and taste of the fruit in my opinion. Glad you liked this, - Love, G.

        Haha! This indeed requires no baking or cooking skills. But it always wows the guests whenever I make it. I am almost ashamed of calling this a recipe but who could complain when the outcome is that delicious. - Love, G. =D

      Both your grape sorbets are killer but this one wins! The colour did it for me the most. So pretty! Also tasty!

      Made this sorbet. Used only 1 tablespoon of agave. It was delicious. The only issue I had was trying to scoop it into a pretty ball. I froze it overnight. It was really hard and so I let it sit for a bit, but still it fell off in chunks and when I did manage to scoop it into the scooper, it didn’t come out nicely. Is there something you did to be able to scoop it so perfectly?

        Hello Michiko. I made mine using an ice cream machine. It makes sure the sorbet only forms small ice crystals. That way it remains scoopable. You can mimic that by stirring the sorbet with a fork every 30mins while it sets in the freezer. It is all about breaking the ice crystals apart. - Love, G.

      Thanks, Gloria. I failed to mention that I also used an ice cream machine, but then froze it after that since I wasn’t planning on eating it that night. Did you freeze any leftovers? Perhaps I need to use more agave.

        Hello again. 😊 I use mine straight away. If I store it I let it sit on the counter for a bit but it's not as neatly scoopable after it was stored in the freezer. If you want to make it ahead and store it for a day or two you need to increase the sugar content. - Love, G.
