Grapefruit sorbet for all types of production

Grapefruits are the result of a cross between orange and grapefruit. Many people perceive the slightly bitter taste as especially refreshing. It is therefore the ideal fruit to make an ice cream for hot summer days.

To put it bluntly: for this ice cream you cannot save on sugar. Otherwise it becomes very hard and the taste is perceived by most people as too bitter. Our sense of taste can simply perceive cold sweetness much less well.

This ice cream recipe can be used as Granita, in Freezer or with the ice cream machine can be produced. But it is just as well suited to be used in Stem Ice- or Popsicle shapes to be filled.
