Fresh Orange Sorbet

Made with freshly squeezed juice, sugar, and water. This orange sorbet is frozen in your freezer. Scoop it up and serve in an empty orange half.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup orange juice, about 3 oranges

Instructions:

  1. Combine water and sugar in a heavy bottomed medium-sized pot.
  2. On medium/high heat, bring to a boil, stirring occasionally . This might take up to 10 minutes. Continue boiling for 5 more minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
  4. When the mixture is just about cooled, squeeze the juice from the oranges.
  5. Measure out 1 cup freshly squeezed juice and add to the cooled simple syrup.
  6. Pour into a loaf pan and place in the freezer for 3-4 hours. Every 30 minutes stir the mixture with a spoon so that hard crystals don’t form. Repeat for the next 3-4 hours until the sorbet becomes creamy and the hard ice crystals have disappeared.
