Candy Cane Coolers
Ingredients
4 cups apple juice, chilled
3 cups chilled strawberry soda
2 pints raspberry sorbet, divided
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
Candy canes
Directions
Combine the apple juice, strawberry soda, one pint of the sorbet and the peppermint extract in a large bowl. Mix until the sorbet melts. Set out eight glasses and distribute the remaining pint of sorbet among the glasses. Hook a candy cane to each glass, then pour the apple juice mixture over sorbet. Serve immediately.
Suggestions
You could also serve this out of a punch bowl. Hang the candy canes around the rim of the bowl. Float some mint leaves on top for a festive look.
