Servings 8 people
Calories 144kcal

Ingredients

  • 2 tree-ripened peaches
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 1/2 cups raspberries
  • fresh peppermint leaves for garnish
  • 1 cup natural cane sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup fresh peppermint leaves
  • 1 organic lemon zested
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice 4-6 lemons

Instructions

  • Wash peaches thoroughly but do not peel. Halve, remove pit, and cut each half into eight slices. In a medium bowl, toss peaches with agave and orange juice. Refrigerate for about 2 hours or overnight.
  • Make sorbet: Combine sugar, water, peppermint, and lemon zest in a medium pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a steady simmer and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let steep for 20 minutes; then strain through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing to extract flavors. Stir in lemon juice. Chill until cold, at least 45 minutes. Pour into an ice-cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer’s directions. (Or freeze in an 8x8-inch pan, scraping with a fork every 15 minutes.)
  • Toss raspberries with a few tablespoons of peach liquid. Serve peaches and raspberries atop scoops of sorbet, drizzled with remaining juice. Garnish with mint leaves.
