Cracked Black Pepper and Honeydew Sorbet
It’s been such an obscenely hot summer I’ve been looking for lots of ways to cool off.

Yeah, this is another of weird flavor combination but it really works – the flecks of pepper dance off your tongue and give interest to the sweet, fruity honeydew flavor.
