During this time when holidays are planned,
summer camps are organized, relatives are visited and all open spaces become
playgrounds supporting a roaring multitude obsessed with the gentleman’s game, the
need for an easy to make, refreshing, healthy and economical thirst quencher is
universally felt. Thought there are a thousand homemade heat-beaters suggested
by parents and elders ranging from the mundane to the exotic. Of all these one
of the most effective is the ubiquitous and simple Sorbet or Italian Ice. It
makes the perfect desert when the temperature rises.
