Technically,
sherbet is just a sorbet with added egg whites or dairy products—
milk, buttermilk, or yogurt. Here, yogurt cuts the grapefruit’s
tartness, lightening its intensity.
(Makes
About 2 Cups) Combine:
1 cup fresh pink grapefruit juice, strained
1 cup plain lowfat yogurt
1/3 cup clover or orange blossom honey
2 t. grapefruit zest, minced
1 t. maraschino cherry juice (for coloring, optional)
Pinch salt
Combine all ingredients, stirring until honey dissolves
and yogurt is completely blended in (no lumps). Process mixture
in ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s directions
until firm. Transfer sherbet to a freezer container, press a piece
of waxed or parchment paper on top of the sherbet, and cover tightly
with a lid. Freeze until firm and scoopable, at least 2 hours.
