This light and refreshing watermelon-flavored fruit sorbet is the perfect treat for a summer house party or a fitting end to dinner. It can be made with watermelon or any type of melon. The pulp is whipped with lemon juice, sugar, and a couple of spoons of vodka. This amount of alcohol in the dessert is unlikely to get you drunk, but it will enhance the fruit flavors. To freeze the sorbet, you'll need an ice cream maker, into which the mixture is poured when very cold. Then, chill it for a few more hours in the freezer before enjoying.
