Recipe Summary

prep: 10 mins

total: 6 hrs 30 mins

Yield: Makes 1 Quart

Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

3 cups fresh grapefruit juice (from about 3 1/2 pounds fruit), strained

1/4 cup Campari or Aperol

3/4 cup sugar

Large pinch of sea salt

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

      Cook's Notes

Quick mixing tip: When adding any liquor, restrain the pour, as too much booze will overwhelm the fruit and impede freezing. The upshot is a refreshing aperitif you can eat with a spoon. 

      Variations

TANGERINE Use tangerine juice instead of grapefruit; omit the Campari. In place of the lemon juice, use 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice.BLOOD ORANGE Use blood-orange juice instead of grapefruit; omit the Campari. Lightly crush a sprig of thyme or rosemary in your hand and add to sugar mixture while heating. Combine with remaining juice and let steep 20 minutes, then strain before refrigerating.TRICOLORTo create the tricolor combo featured in the photo, make all three variations and put them in separate containers in the freezer. When all are firm (but not frozen solid), transfer one flavor into one side of an 8-by-5-inch loaf pan so it fills one third of the length. Add another flavor to fill the adjacent third of the pan, then the final flavor to fill completely. Freeze until firm, about two hours.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 cups fresh grapefruit juice (from about 3 1/2 pounds fruit), strained
  • 1/4 cup Campari or Aperol
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • Large pinch of sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

In a saucepan, heat 1 cup grapefruit juice, Campari, sugar, and salt over medium until sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer to a heatproof container and stir in lemon juice and remaining 2 cups grapefruit juice. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

Put a loaf pan or similar container in the freezer. Churn juice mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions. Transfer to chilled pan and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.

For the best texture, let stand at room temperature 10 minutes to soften slightly. Use an ice cream scoop dipped in hot water, then wiped dry, to serve. Sorbet can be stored, covered, in freezer up to 2 weeks.
