Makes 1 pint, Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
5 cups very ripe sugar plums, pitted (8 to one cup)
1/2 cup water

To make simple syrup: Mix sugar and water together in a small pan over a low heat, and bring up to boil until the sugar dissolves. Allow the simple syrup to boil for 4 minutes, remove from heat and cool completely.
In a large bowl combine strained plum mixture, champagne, and 1/2 cup of the cooled simple syrup. Continue to add syrup 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired sweetness, which will depend on the ripeness of your fruit.
To Make Sorbet: Chill mixture at least 1/2 hour in freezer, until temperature reaches around 40 degrees. Churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. Freeze for at least two hours to set before serving.
