Preparation

  1. Step 1

    With a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from 1 orange, being careful to avoid the white pith. Place the zest in a small saucepan with the sugar and 2 cups water. Warm over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Transfer to a bowl and chill, then strain.

  2. Step 2

    Squeeze the juice from the oranges and lemon, and then strain into the orange-sugar mixture. Freeze in an ice cream maker, following the manufacturer's instructions.

This was a lovely end to our New Year's Eve dinner. I froze it in my kitchenmaid ice cream maker. It was fairly slushy when I removed it from the freezing bowl and put it in a container and into the fridge freezer. After several hours, the consistency was just perfect. I served it with prosecco and chocolates.

No amounts? How much juice should u have. Oranges have a wide range of juice.

Made as stated but added 1 tablespoon of blood orange liquor. This was really delicious. Will definitely make it again.

Please add juice volume to this recipe.

Made as is but a bit too sweet for me. I know sugar is crucial for texture but would try to reduce it next time or up the acid from lemon.
