Pink grapefruit and champagne sorbet

When there's champagne in my house, the last thing I think of is baking something with it. But this sounds so perfectly refreshing, I may yet learn some restraint. Plus, the recipe doesn't call for the entire bottle, meaning there's room for both. I found the recipe in an old Donna Hay magazine (Issue 35)


Serves 4
1 cup of caster (superfine) sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup pink grapefruit juice
1 cup champagne

Place sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat and stir until dissolved. Increase to high heat and boil for one minute. Set aside to cool. Combine grapefruit juice, champagne and cooled syrup in a bowl and stir. Pour into an ice-cream maker and follow manufacturer's instructions until firm.

  2. I don't have an ice-cream maker so may just try to make in my freezer. Donna Hay's recipes always work flawlessly for me.

  4. Miss Jane...this sounds SOOO lovely and delicious on a hot, sunny day! And good inspiration for wanting to put my Donna Hay books to use. I've had them for ages! But I spend so much time gawking over the photos that I usually use up all my time for the cooking part! :)

  6. The closer we get to summer, the more convinced I become that I NEED an ice cream maker. :)
