Milkjam Creamery - Peach's Castle

Peach's Castle - White Peach Sorbet with a Raspberry Swirl

I recently returned to the Milkjam Creamery in Minneapolis and found a couple of pints to try.  The first pint is called Peach's Castle.  It is a white peach sorbet with a raspberry swirl.  Peach's Castle is a reference from the world of Super Mario Brothers.  Princess Peach is a character in the game series who is often in need of saving.  Since she is a princess, she would naturally have a castle, and other game characters might visit here there.  The flavor is a white peach sorbet with a swirl of raspberry.  I was unfamiliar with different colors of peaches before today.  This link discusses the difference.  Yellow peaches have a stronger, more acidic flavor which is better for cooking while white peaches have a milder, sweeter flavor which is better for eating out of hand.  White peach in a sorbet would seem reasonable because it is not cooked and we would like it to be sweet.  Let's check this out.

Removing the lid shows a very bright pink splotches over a whitish base.  It is a very striking and beautiful top of the pint.  Digging in, I taste the raspberry first.  It is a sweet raspberry and not too tart.  I have to concentrate to notice the peach, but when I do I can tell that it is there underneath the raspberry.  They sorbet texture is fairly creamy.  I can still tell that it is a sorbet and not an ice cream, but they do a very good job of whipping it up so that it not too icy or slushy.

This is refreshing peach and raspberry sorbet.  The raspberry dominates the pint a bit, so it would appeal to raspberry fans more than it would appeal to peach fans, but it is delicious nonetheless.  Check it out if you see it in their scooping bin and you are looking for something light and fruity.
