The name says it all right? As some of you may know from reading my bio (http://ciaobellagelato.com/#/team) , my favorite flavor is Blackberry Cabernet Sorbet. I ate this indulgently bold flavor straight through my two pregnancies, the toddler stages, preschool tantrums and many late nights as a working mom. When asked my favorite flavor, I never hesitated. Until now…
My new love
I was not looking, I swear. As the summer sun started to turn up its heat, I innocently took home a pint of our Peach Ginger Sorbet, new to pints in 2010. I am obsessed with Peach Ginger Sorbet. This succulently spiced and nectar sweet dessert, laced with spicy candied ginger leaves me longing for more. And I mean seriously. I have always loved fresh peaches and I have always loved something added to my ice cream or sorbet, so Peach Ginger is the perfect sorbet for me. If I am out to dinner and know I have this brightly colored pint in my freezer at home, I always pass on the dessert menu and quickly ask for the check.
Oh and while we are on full disclosure, I have also taken to sneaking into the break room and actively eating this tastebud awakening sorbet in lieu of my afternoon coffee. And, for those who know me – Caffeine and I are one. In my seven years at Ciao Bella, only my first encounters with Malted Milk Ball led me to lunchroom lingering. The label says four servings, but I interpret it as 2 1/2.
You can call me obsessedwithpeachginger, formerly known as crazy4blackcab from now on. Yes, something has certainly changed.
Yum… That does sound good! I will have to keep my eyes “peeled” (hee hee) for that. My favorite right now is chocolate jalapeno gelato, it used to be Black cab as well! Don’t get me wrong I still love it, but the chocolate jalapeno stole my heart!
