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.
