Turkish sherbet (drink)
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. Turkish sherbets come in various types and can be made from different berries or fruits (not necessarily raspberries). However, raspberry sherbet turns out especially delicate, sweet, and aromatic at the same time. To prepare Turkish sherbet (a beverage), you will need milk, which must be cold. You can add ice cream to the sherbet before serving.

Step 1
Rinse the raspberries to remove any debris or tiny insects. Then place them in a saucepan and pour in cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain the liquid. You can use the berries in another dessert or baked goods; we won't need them for the sherbet.
