For an even smoother sorbet, consider using an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning the mixture.
If you don't have almond extract, a splash of Kirsch (cherry liqueur) can be used as a substitute.
Adjust the sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of your cherries. Taste the mixture before freezing and add more sugar if needed.
The white wine enhances the cherry flavor but can be omitted if preferred. Substitute with an equal amount of water or cherry juice.

  • Cheyenne Tremblay

    This sorbet is absolutely divine! The perfect balance of sweet and tart. I used a Riesling for the wine, and it worked beautifully.

  • Sarai Willmshettinger

    The salt really does make a difference! My sorbet was perfectly scoopable, not icy at all. I'll definitely be making this again.
