I adapted this from a recipe I got off of the Cuisinart web site; this is a little more tart, with a little less sugar than originally called for.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3/4 cups sugar
2 cups water
2 cups grapefruit juice (approximately two large ruby red grapefruit)
1 tablespoon grapefruit zest (see note)
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh

Steps:

  • NOTE: To make the grapefruit zest, simply grate the rind of the grapefruit. Be sure to get only the rind, and not the pith (the white part) beneath the rind.
  • Make simple syrup: Combine sugar and water in small saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and boil, without stirring, for 1-2 minutes.
  • Combine grapefruit juice, grapefruit zest, and lemon juice.
  • Add grapefruit mixture to simple syrup. Mix well.
  • Refrigerate for a couple of hours, or overnight.

Easy to make and so refreshing! I used a mix of pink and red grapefruits, which gave the sorbet a beautiful color. I also added a splash of lime juice to brighten up the flavor. It was a hit at my party!

This sorbet was a delightful treat! The grapefruit flavor was perfectly balanced between tart and sweet, and the texture was smooth and creamy. I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again!
