Sparkling Peach & Thyme Sorbet

This recipe yields 5 cups.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine peach slices, water and sugar. Heat and mix well until sugar dissolves completely. Bring to a boil then allow mixture to simmer for about 15 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in honey, lemon juice, zest and fresh thyme. Let the peach mixture sit for an additional 10 minutes until cooled.

Pour mixture into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth, then put it into a bowl, cover and allow to chill in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 hours. Then mix in the champagne and pour into your frozen ice cream maker and mix for about 20 minutes, or according to the ice cream maker instructions.

Once sorbet is done mixing, put it into a freezer safe airtight container, cover and place in the freezer overnight. Then enjoy it the next day!
