Ingredients

  • Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds sweet cherries stemmed and pitted (I used Bing cherries)
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup frozen limeade concentrate thawed
  • 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier* can use another type of liquor (see below)
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Instructions:
  • Place cherries, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan; simmer for 5 minutes until cherries are slightly softened and sugar is dissolved.
  • Remove from heat and allow to come to room temperature then add limeade and place mixture in a blender.
  • Blend until smooth then allow to cool in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  • Add Grand Marnier and freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's directions.

Notes

Notes: Grand Marnier (or any other type of liquor) will keep homemade sorbets and ice creams from getting hard and icy. All you need is a tablespoon.
