we've developed a bit of a sorbet habit in our house. we've made a couple batches of peach, watermelon and blueberry. its all so refreshing and perfect for a hot summer night snack.

the blueberry has been my fave so far.

here's the recipe:

• 3 pints fresh from the farmers market ripe blueberries (about 6 cups)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
• 2 oz. st. germain

1. in a medium sauce pan, mix the blueberries, sugar, water and salt. bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. continue to cook, stir and mash the berries for about 25-30 minutes. remove from heat.
2. add the lemon juice.
3. process the berries in a blender, food processor or with an immersion blender.
4. let cool.
5. add the st. germain and mix thoroughly.
6. chill in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
7. freeze in your ice cream maker according to
   the manufacturer's instructions.
8. yum.
