Etymology
The term 'sorbetto' derives from the Italian word 'sorbetto,' which is a diminutive of 'sorba,' meaning 'to sip.' The origins of sorbetto trace back to ancient times, where frozen desserts were made from crushed ice and flavored with fruit juices or wines. Historically, the concept of freezing sweetened liquids can be seen in various cultures, but it was in Italy where the modern sorbetto was developed and popularized. The combination of fruit and sugar in a frozen form became a favored delicacy, especially during the Renaissance. As trade routes expanded, sorbetto began to appear in various countries and evolved in terms of flavors and preparation methods, ultimately leading to the diverse varieties we enjoy today.
