Unknown. Pokorny links Russian соробали́на (sorobalína), сорбали́на (sorbalína, “rose hip, blackberry”) and Lithuanian serbentà, serbeñtas (“redcurrant, blackcurrant”) and others (also comparing the verb sir̃bti, sir̃pti (“to ripen”)), reconstructing Proto-Indo-European *ser-, *ser-bʰ- (“red, reddish-brown”). De Vaan maintains that this connection is possible, but adds that the meaning of the root would not be “red”. Instead, these words may be derived from a common non-Indo-European substrate source *sVrb- (“berry”). Probably unrelated to sorbeō (“to drink, suck up, slurp”).
