I have a cocktail and a dessert for you today- because we are CELEBRATING!!!
My Heathermade fresh baked goods launch in select Costco’s today and I am out of my mind with excitement!
And excitement like this equals two things for me: A drink and a treat. This is both. I haven’t had a “cosmo” in ages, but I can’t really imagine why? Sex and the city made this combo of ice cold vodka, cranberry and lime super star famous and with good reason- it’s amazing. So when I was recently thinking about making some kind of fall sorbet and cranberry was a natural solution- I just felt that we should also add some booze to it- which led to the cosmo conclusion. 
Don’t worry- this is not blatantly boozey- but I did find it detectable- which I like by the way ☺ And holy cow- isn’t it so pretty!! I love the color and the fresh little sprinkle of lime zest on top- it’s so festive. I feel like it is just all about the Holidays- and wouldn’t this be a fun dessert for friends!?
Ok- have a great weekend and if you live near Seattle- please come eat cookies with me at Costco!!
- ½ cup sugar
- ⅔ cup water
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 3 tablespoons vodka
- ½ cup fresh lime juice
- In a medium pot, heat the sugar, water and cranberries. Bring to a boil and then cover the pot and simmer on lowest heat for 15 minutes until the cranberries are completely soft.
- Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature. Once the Cranberries have cooled, puree the mixture on high and sieve through a fine mesh strainer.
- Whisk the liquid with the vodka and the lime juice and chill in the refrigerator.
- Freeze the sorbet in your ice cream maker according to manufacturers directions.
- Transfer to a freezer friendly container and freeze for at least 4 hours. Scoop and serve.

Now this is a great way to celebrate the holidays for me cause I live in the south hem where it’s almost summer! Yumminess, this sorbet looks so sweet and refreshing!
Heather….Yea and Congrats… And thank you for making these amazing foods available…..I haven’t any allergies but I do have many friends who have and they have gone through so much just trying to eat and be “normal”! Thank you for them….and me, I am cooking and eating so much healthier! Happy Weekend!
Cranberries and lime sound so refreshing together!!
This sounds so good and is beautiful! I have fabulous fresh cranberries from the bogs at Long Beach perfect way to use some of them. Found be the adult palette cleanser for Thanksgiving and Christmas too

Wow! The color is gorgeous along with the touch of lime! Yum!
I just went to the 4th Ave. Costco in Seattle. Purchased one of each (well 2 pkgs of cookies). So, so good! Stocked up before Thanksgiving since the kiddos will be home and family is in town. Thanks Heathermade!
Congratulations on Heathermade!! Years of hard work pay off 🙂 This sorbet looks amazing. I kinda want to go out and buy an ice cream maker just so I can make this. Beautiful colors.
Oh my gosh-the new website-it’s amazing! So beautiful and classy. Can’t wait to try those chia brownies!
That color is just beyond, gorgeous sorbet!
This is the best women’s desert. I’ll try it this weekend.
