Ingredients

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup spring water
• 1 cup raspberry purée or 4 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
• juice of 1/2 lemon
• two tablespoons Chambord liqueur
• 1 egg white

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, heat the sugar and water until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and cool.
In a blender or food processor, purée the raspberries and strain the seeds. Add the sugar syrup along with the lemon juice and Chambord liqueur. Refrigerate until cold.
When cold, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. Fill the machine only halfway, as the mixture expands as it freezes. Freeze according to ice cream maker instructions.
As it starts to freeze, add the egg white and freeze until firm. (The egg white will give the gelato are creamy texture.)

Cooks Notes: For festive occasions, serve gelato in a martini glass with fresh mint leaves and a splash of champagne.
