Put all ingredients in a sealable bowl, stir vigorously, put the lid on, and let it steep for 3 hours at room temperature.
Then remove the coarse parts with the slotted spoon and filter the remaining liquid through a sieve lined with cheesecloth.
Place the liquid in a metal bowl in the freezer and stir briefly from the edge about every 70 minutes so that the ice crystals do not get too big. After approx. 4 to 6 hours, depending on the temperature of the cooler and the location of the bowl, the sorbet is ready.
It tastes great as an intermediate course to a classic corn menu with asparagus, plaice and strawberries.
