  • champagne
  • garnish: lemon slice (basil leaves)

Instruction

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the 7UP TEN® soda, juice, sugar, zest, and basil. Add heat, if necessary, to get the sugar to dissolve (it won't take much). Chill in the refrigerator.
  • In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the cream to medium peaks. Gently stir in the 7up-lemon-basil mixture. Transfer sherbet to a nonreactive storage container and freeze completely.
  • To serve, use a melon baller to put two balls of sherbet in a champagne glass. Slowly pour 7up TEN® with or without champagne, to your taste, over top (bubbles!). Garnish with lemon and fresh basil.
