This delicious dessert combines the bitterness of coffee with the sweetness of watermelon and the fizziness of spritz to create a unique and indulgent treat that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth and perk you up at the same time.
To start, you’ll need to prepare the coffee sorbet. Begin by brewing a pot of your favorite coffee and letting it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, pour the coffee into a mixing bowl and stir in your choice of sweetener. You can use sugar, honey, or any other sweetener that you prefer. Stir until the sweetener dissolves completely.
Next, pour the coffee mixture into a sorbet maker or ice cream maker and let it churn until it becomes thick and creamy. This should take about 20-30 minutes depending on your machine.
While the sorbet is churning, prepare the watermelon and spritz. Cut a small watermelon into bite-sized chunks and set aside. Then, mix together some sparkling water and your choice of fruit juice to make the spritz. Use a citrus juice like lemon or lime to complement the bitterness of the coffee sorbet.
Once the sorbet is done churning, scoop it into serving dishes and top with the watermelon chunks. Then, pour the spritz over the top of the sorbet and watermelon. The spritz will add a refreshing fizz to the dessert, making it perfect for a hot summer day.
You can also experiment with other fruit toppings for your coffee sorbet. Try adding sliced strawberries, blueberries, or even a scoop of mango sorbet for an extra burst of flavor.
