This is a basic recipe calling for oranges and lemons, but can easily be substituted with crushed melon, strawberries, or whatever your favorite fruit may be. From "The Arabian Delights Cookbook."

This was a bit too sweet for my liking. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I found that the ice crystals were a bit too large for my taste. I think I'll try blending the mixture until it's smooth next time.
