Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield Makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup mint leaves, washed, plus extra for garnish
3 cups freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice (reserve 2 grapefruit halves for serving)
1 grapefruit or pomelo, for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil until the sugar dissolves and the syrup is clear. Remove from heat, add 1/2 cup of the mint leaves and steep 15 minutes. Strain syrup, let cool and refrigerate until chilled. (The syrup will keep, refrigerated, for 2 weeks.)
  • In a bowl, mix the pink grapefruit juice with the syrup. Pour into an ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. Transfer to a container and freeze until serving time. Wrap and freeze the reserved grapefruit halves. Meanwhile, peel the grapefruit or pomelo and pull it apart into segments. Using the tip of a small sharp knife, loosen the white membrane surrounding each segment and pull it away, trying not to pierce any of the little juice pods. Break up the segments into the juice pods and set aside.
  • Place the sorbet in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
  • Scatter half the grapefruit or pomelo juice pods over the bottom of the frozen grapefruit halves. Scoop sorbet over the grapefruit and cover with remaining grapefruit juice pods. Garnish with mint leaves.

PINK GRAPEFRUIT SORBET

Living in a citrus-growing area I've found out how much these fruits change once they're off the tree. Use the freshest fruit you can get your hands on. If you're fortunate enough to have a tree or know someone who does, pick the grapefruits when you're ready to squeeze the juice and make the sorbet. You'll have a great treat.

PINK GRAPEFRUIT SORBET



Pink Grapefruit Sorbet image

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.

Provided by KLHquilts

Categories     Frozen Desserts

Time 4h15m

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.
  • Pour into ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy grapefruit: The quality of your grapefruit will greatly impact the flavor of the sorbet. Look for grapefruit that is heavy for its size, has a smooth and shiny skin, and yields to gentle pressure. Avoid grapefruit that has blemishes or bruises.
  • Use fresh lavender flowers: Fresh lavender flowers will provide the most intense flavor to your sorbet. If you can't find fresh lavender, you can use dried lavender buds, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
  • Chill the grapefruit mixture thoroughly before churning: This will help the sorbet to freeze more quickly and smoothly. You can chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Churn the sorbet in a frozen ice cream maker: This will help the sorbet to freeze evenly and prevent it from becoming icy. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the sorbet in a shallow dish and stir it every 30 minutes until it is frozen.
  • Serve the sorbet immediately or store it in the freezer: The sorbet can be served immediately after churning, or it can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. When ready to serve, let the sorbet soften in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before scooping.

Conclusion:

Pink grapefruit sorbet with lavender is a refreshing and flavorful dessert that is perfect for a summer party or a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. If you like a sweeter sorbet, you can add more sugar. If you like a more tart sorbet, you can use less sugar or add a squeeze of lemon juice. No matter how you make it, pink grapefruit sorbet with lavender is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
