Raspberry Sorbet and Ginger Beer Floats
Once I decided to make homemade ginger beer, I knew I wanted to make a float of some sort with it. Once we tasted just how spicy the ginger beer came out, I knew it needed to be something sweet, like this raspberry sorbet.
This was a match made in summertime treat heaven. Drinking it through a straw before the sorbet melted yields a spicy gingery drink with hints of raspberry. But as the sorbet melts into a slush, you get a well balanced sweet and spicy concoction sure to cool you down from the summer’s heat.
No recipe for this post today. I simply scooped some raspberry sorbet in to a cup, topped it off with some ginger beer, and served it with a fun straw. You could obviously use store-bought versions of these components if you want as well.

Isn’t it the BEST feeling when your husband says they love something?? Especially when you make things all the time.
I am a huge fan of blueberry muffins but adding peach might be a new twist on an old favorite. Looks great!
Ooh, blueberry peach in a muffin? YUM!
OOOh, that sounds great! I always make blueberry muffins-we all love them and recently made my first (!) peach pie! I can just imagine how good that must be!

This isn’t a combination I would think of! Looks yummy!
Blueberry and Peach? How Cool!? I love to find different combinations that are not the every day norm! Thanks for sharing this one!!
Wow that looks delish! I actually have some peach jam I need to finish up myself. Is it really tender enough without any butter or oil?
Yes Xiaolu – They’re very tender and moist
Yum! Peach and blueberry are great together! I bet my husband would like these too.
You are SO great with flavor combinations!! I LOVE this idea!! I’m glad you liked the recipe, but I’m sure the AMAZZING part of them came from your awesome personal twist! YUM!
What great end-of-the-summer flavors!
These muffins are perfect for summer. They sound delicious:)
Those look great 🙂 Now I want blueberry muffins… LOL
