Sorbet is a little like the leather bondage of frozen desserts, don’t you think?
You’re secretly not meant to prefer it to the frigonormative ice cream, which contains dairy and is therefore inherently somewhat wholesome. But hold back the white stuff, and what happens? The citrus spectrum, elsewhere smothered under so much gentle lactose, finally gets to throw its bony weight around. Hard booze retains its bite. Vegans get involved which, while not XXX in and of itself, inexplicably tends to act as enabler to harder alternative lifestyles. The texture is rougher. There’s less air.
Sorbet: altogether more adult.
