Frequently Asked Questions About Homemade sherbet (cranberry, sour cherry, strawberry, clove, cinnamon)
What is homemade sherbet, and is it the same as sorbet?
Homemade sherbet in this recipe is a Turkish fruit drink made with cranberry, sour cherry, strawberry, clove and cinnamon. It is served as a liquid, usually chilled; sorbet is a frozen dessert eaten with a spoon.
How do you make homemade sherbet?
Simmer the cranberries, sour cherries and strawberries in water until softened, then steep them with clove and cinnamon. Strain the mixture, let it cool, and sweeten to taste. Serve chilled for a refreshing Turkish-style fruit drink.
What fruit goes into homemade sherbet?
This homemade sherbet combines cranberry, sour cherry and strawberry, giving it a balance of tart and sweet fruit flavors. You can replace a missing fruit with another berry, but the drink’s color and flavor will change.
Should you boil the fruit for homemade sherbet?
Yes, the fruit is usually simmered briefly in water so its color and flavor infuse the drink. Avoid prolonged, vigorous boiling, which can make the fruit taste dull or overly cooked. Steep the spices, then strain everything.
Why does homemade sherbet taste bitter or too tart?
Homemade sherbet can taste tart because cranberries and sour cherries are naturally sharp; too much clove or cinnamon can add bitterness. Use the spices sparingly, remove them after steeping, and adjust the sweetness after the drink has cooled.
Is homemade sherbet served hot or cold?
Homemade sherbet is usually served cold, which makes its fruit and spice flavors especially refreshing. Chill it before serving; ice is optional, but too much can dilute the drink. It can also be served at an iftar meal.
Can you make homemade sherbet without sugar?
Yes, you can make homemade sherbet without added sugar. The fruit still gives it flavor, though cranberry and sour cherry make the result quite tart. Taste it after straining and add sweetener gradually only if you want a sweeter drink.
How long does homemade sherbet last in the fridge?
Keep homemade sherbet in a clean, covered container in the refrigerator and drink it within a few days. Straining out the fruit pulp helps maintain a smoother texture. Discard it if its smell or appearance changes.
Is homemade sherbet a traditional Turkish drink?
Yes, fruit-based sherbet is a traditional Turkish drink, often flavored with fruit, flowers or spices and served chilled. This homemade version uses cranberry, sour cherry, strawberry, clove and cinnamon rather than being a frozen dessert.
Can children drink homemade sherbet?
Yes, children can have homemade sherbet, but serve a small portion if it is sweetened, since it is a sweet drink rather than a substitute for water. Strain out the fruit and whole spices before serving to young children.

What is Homemade sherbet (cranberry, sour cherry, strawberry, clove, cinnamon)?
Homemade sherbet is a traditional Turkish drink made by simmering or steeping kızılcık (Turkish cornelian cherry), sour cherry and strawberry with clove and cinnamon, then straining and chilling the liquid. Fruity, warmly spiced and light in texture, it is a refreshing drink rather than the frozen dessert called sherbet in some English-speaking countries.
In Turkey, it is served cold on warm days, alongside meals and at festive tables; it is also a welcome option for iftar. Its carbohydrates come largely from the fruit and any added sweetener, so the sweetness can vary from one home recipe to another. For a lighter glass, use less sugar and let the fruit and spices provide more of the flavour.
