Lambrusco Floats
SERVES: 4 | PREP TIME: 5 MIN | COOK TIME: 5 MIN
If summer had a “drink”…
…I would probably guess Rosé, or a crisp cold beer. But then, there’s this. A Lambrusco float. Holy cow. My root beer float loving inner-child just grew up. 2 ingredients of crisp, effervescent, sweet, tart, refreshment. Drink it as a dessert, or as a fun afternoon cocktail on your porch. This version is completely dairy-free, and that felt more natural to me with sparkling red wine. But, if you really want the true “float” experience, try a sherbet instead of a sorbet. You’ll get that frothy, milky effect that does get left out when using sorbet. Heck, while you’re playing around, try any tart fruit flavor. Have fun with this one, friends!!
INSTRUCTIONS
In a wide mouth glass place two scoops of the raspberry sorbet. Pour lambrusco over top, stopping half way to keep the bubbles from overflowing. Garnish with raspberries and enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
1 pint raspberry sorbet (or sherbet if you prefer creamy, dairy)
