At the Camelback Inn, in the Arizona desert, they begin an impressive Yuletide dinner with this beautiful array of fruits; Pink Champagne poured over all just before being served. You don't need to wait for Christmas to try this, and you can make this even on an ordinary day and make it special. Ingredients:
1 pint strawberries or 2 (16 ounce) packages frozen strawberries |
2 large grapefruits |
3 large navel oranges |
1 (26 fluid ounce) bottle pink champagne |
1 (8 ounce) package pitted dates, halved or 1/2 lb fresh dates, pitted and halved |
2 pints lemon sherbet |
Directions:
1. Wash fresh strawberries; drain. Remove hulls; cut any large berries in half.
2. Peel and section grapefruit and oranges. Refrigerate fruit until it is well chilled-about 2 hours. (if using frozen berries, thaw and drain).Also refrigerate champagne until ready to use.
3. Combine fruit and dates in a large bowl; toss lightly. Arrange fruit mixture in 12 dessert dishes. Top each serving with a small scoop of lemon sherbet.
4. Pour some of the champagne over each serving. Serve at once; add rest of champagne as needed.
