There is something quite special sitting with good friends in front of a crackling wood fire at the bottom of the garden on a starry late-summer night and have your host whip up a most delicious Scarpino as a dessert after a delicious meal. His recipe remains a well guarded secret, but here is a good substitute for you to try. It is spectacular, theatrical -- and probably the best dessert you will ever have tasted! Try it and let me know what you think!
Serves 6
* 6 large scoops lemon sorbet
* 1/2 cup vodka
* 1 bottle of sparkling wine or Champagne
* small tub of natural yoghurt
Method
Put the lemon sorbet in a large mixing bowl. Pour the vodka over and whisk fast with an egg whisk. Add the sparkling wine or champagne while continuing to whisk. The secret is to do it fast so that the bubble of the champagne reacts with the whisking and the drink becomes very light and foamy. Pour into champagne flutes or martini glasses and serve immediately.(Photo of drink: Champagne, Darling? Freezes)
