Ingredients List
- 3-5 ea large Texas Ruby-Red or Rio Star grapefruit, juiced
- 2 c sugar (adjust, within wide range, to taste)
- 2 c heavy whipping cream
- : fresh mint leaves or maraschino cherries for garnish (optional)
- Juice the Texas Ruby-Red or Rio Star grapefruit. Mix juice with about half
- the sugar and put into the ice cream machine. It will take about 20-30
- minutes of freezing before it's ready.
- While the ice cream machine is working, whip the cream until it forms firm
- peaks, adding sugar to (stiffen slightly and) sweeten it to taste.
- When the sorbet is well frozen but still spoonable, layer alternating
- layers of whipped cream and ruby-red grapefruit sorbet (starting and ending
- with whipped cream) into tall stemmed parfait glasses, making sure you have
- a nice mound of whipped cream on the top of each glass. (Try to collapse
- the air pockets which will try to form as you add each layer!)
- Add a sprig of fresh mint and/or a maraschino cherry or two on top as a
- garnish, if desired. Serve immediately with a long ice tea spoon in each
- glass.
- This is a wonderful, refreshing, light dessert... a delightful combination
- of sweet and tart, contrasting textures and colors, loaded with Vitamin C,
- and icy cold. Most people don't think of grapefruit as a dessert item, but
- this proves how wrong they were!
