Zinfadel Sorbet at Discount Wine Cellars



When I go to a bakery with my two daughters, the younger one (who is about to turn 7) is always drawn to the cupcakes. In the display window are countless options, including french pastries and giant chocolate chip muffins, but the little sugar flowers on the cupcakes are soooo attractive. I guess there are treats made with children in mind. This is also true for adults.
For example, I came across a recipe for a Zinfadel sorbet which at first I thought my kids could eat. 1 cup red zinfadel, 1 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar, a splash of lemon (used this in place of mint). Boil everything up, freeze it, put it in the blender, freeze it some more. Easy, and the alcohol is boiled away. I re-read the recipe before starting and discovered something important I had overlooked: when boiling, I only combine 1/2 a cup of the zinfadel at first. The second half goes in after the boiled mixture has cooled. The resulting dessert is gorgeous, but I'd get a call from Social Services if I fed it to my kids. Talk about strong.
As I was saying, some treats are meant for adults, and not all of them are located in your wine cellar. And yes, you can add a sugar flower to your dish if you want to.

Hi there! We came across your post on Zinfadel sorbet (which, we used to make, actually!) and wanted you to know that our products are .5% alcohol by volume, meaning they are technically non-alcoholic. If you are still interested in the world of wine sorbet and want something that is kid-friendly, check out our line of nine flavors! The Rose tends to be the kiddie favorite, but if you are a zinfadel fan, check out the cabernet sauvignon.

Cheers!

Hehe, I am pretty much always drawn to the cupcakes too... Maybe they aren't always aimed at the kiddies! :)
