The refreshing hint of mint adds lightness and makes the sorbet an ideal choice for a summer dinner or as a conclusion to an elegant feast. This dessert can be served as a standalone treat or complemented with nuts and fresh berries. It offers a sensation of coolness and tenderness, leaving a lingering taste of delicate wine bouquet.
