Kiwi Sorbet!

This is a very refreshing sorbet, to help you through the dog days of summer. The addition of the melon liqueur is quite interesting and only seems to amplify the kiwi flavour while allowing the sorbet to freeze but still be scoopable.
Top the sorbet off with chopped fresh kiwi and serve after a large meal. There is always room for kiwi sorbet.

Come to think of it, a scoop of kiwi sorbet in your prosecco would be quite a tasty treat too...
