Refreshing Orange Sherbet Cups

These Creamy Orange Sherbet Cups are made with fresh orange juice, cream, and sugar, resulting in a light and refreshing dessert. The recipe takes about 15 minutes to prepare and requires freezing time, yielding about 4 servings.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh orange juice
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of 1 orange
Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh orange juice, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and orange zest. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Chill Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to chill.
Freeze: Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze for about 1 hour, then stir vigorously with a fork to break up ice crystals. Repeat every 30 minutes until fully frozen.
Serve: Once the sherbet is firm, scoop it into serving cups. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired and serve immediately.
