Sorbet Cocktails

Sorbet (sorbetto in Italian) is ice cream’s lighter cousin, as it’s made only from fruit purée or juice, water and sweetener. Fat-free, gluten-free and dairy-free, sorbet is the ideal base for summer cocktails, as it turns foamy and slushy when mixed with bubbly beverages. Introduce this fresh twist on frozen cocktails by mixing up versions featuring a variety of sorbet bases. Served at brunch or as a tasty dessert, these drinks are super cool.

Tequila Sunset

A retro Tequila Sunrise cocktail has an orange juice base, so pale, coral-coloured orange sorbet would certainly work here, but passionfruit or mango sorbet will give a more modern flavour spin and glowy, golden colour.
