SUMMARY

What does the word sorbet mean?

The word "sorbet" originates from the Italian word "sorbetto," which itself derives from the medieval Latin "sorbeo." The Latin term "sorbeo" meant "to drink greedily" or "to suck," referring to the refreshing, liquid consistency of sorbet. The Italian word "sorbetto" was later adopted in several European languages, including French, to refer to this frozen, fruity preparation, usually eaten as a refreshing dessert. Thus, the word "sorbet" was incorporated into the French language to refer to this delicious ice cream without milk or cream, and it is still used today to describe this type of frozen dessert.

In the beginning…

The history of sorbet dates back to ancient times, with uncertain origins between China, Persia (present-day Iran), and India. These cultures used snow or ice to mix with fruit, juice, or honey, creating refreshing, icy drinks. Sorbet then spread to the Middle East, Egypt, and the Roman Empire.
