About the dish

A simple liqueur sorbet built on ready-made strawberry fruit ice. Erken stresses that the liqueur must never be added before the sorbet is frozen, but at the last moment.

How to make it

  1. 1

    Stir in wine and liqueur

    Stir the wine and curaçao into the half-frozen strawberry ice.

  2. 2

    Refreeze

    Freeze the mixture again for a few minutes, until it is just barely firm but still drinkable.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Serve at once in flat glasses.

Frequently asked questions

What is the strawberry sorbet made of?
1 liter strawberry fruit ice, 1 glass curaçao and 1/2 deciliter Sauternes (white wine).
When should the wine and liqueur be added?
When the strawberry ice is half-frozen. Then the sorbet is frozen again for a few minutes.
How is it served?
In flat glasses, and it must be served at once – the sorbet melts fast because the alcohol keeps it from freezing hard.
Where does the recipe come from?
From Henriette Schønberg Erken's "Stor kokebok" (1914), page 514. It is intended for about 10 servings.
