INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups fresh-squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tbsp orange zest
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sugar (divided)
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup milk

INSTRUCTIONS

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the orange juice, zest, vanilla, and ⅔ cup of the sugar until the sugar has dissolved.
  • In a separate bowl, use a whisk or hand mixer to whip the heavy cream and the remaining 1/3 cup sugar until the cream is thick and forms soft peaks.
  • Stir the milk into the orange mixture.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the orange mixture.
  • Refrigerate the sherbet base for at least 1 hour until chilled.
  • Churn according to the directions for your ice-cream maker.

NOTES

If you use store-bought orange juice, look for one that doesn’t have added sugar and isn’t made from concentrate. If you do use an excessively sweet juice, cut back on 1/4 cup of sugar to balance it.
