I have fallen in love with Blood Orange Sorbet. It is so refreshing and even exciting to eat. My son, Isaac, has been asking for sorbet every day since I made it a few days ago. He gets very happy over this luxurious new juice form and I actually do too. If I had any idea how simple it was to make and how wonderful it is, I would have tried it a long time ago. This was my first time to buy blood oranges. They are gorgeous!

Blood Orange Sorbet

• 2 cups freshly squeezed blood oranges
• 2 cups orange juice, no pulp
• 1/2 cup sugar

Mix everything together in a bowl, then transfer to ice cream and sorbet maker, then follow machine instructions.  Churn until it thickens, then freeze for additional freezing time for several hours.

The sorbet hardens more after being in the freezer overnight or for several hours, but can also be enjoyed immediately from the ice cream machine for a softer texture.
