List of Ingredients

1 orange
1 cup water
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice


Recipe

Use a vegetable peeler to remove only the colored part of the orange peel from the whole orange. For syrup, combine the orange peel, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to boiling, stirring till sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Strain, discarding peel; cool syrup. Add orange juice and lemon juice. Pour juice mixture into a 9x9x2-inch pan. Cover; freeze 3 or 4 hours till firm. Break frozen mixture into small chunks. Transfer to a chilled mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed till fluffy but not melted. Transfer to a 4- to 6-cup freezer container; cover and freeze till firm. To serve, let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before scooping. Makes 6 (1/2-cup) servings.
