Having recently visited Florida, I’m officially ready for warm weather and fun in the sun here at home. It’s no secret that I love ice cream, so inspired by my trip, I thought I would whip up a refreshing orange sherbet with a coconut twist. I unpacked the ice-cream maker I received last year and since a bag of oranges wouldn’t fit in my carry-on, I used Simply Orange instead because it’s never frozen, never sweetened and not from concentrate. With the great taste of Simply Orange, you get an absolutely delicious result, full of the “fresh from the grove” taste. If you really want to go above and beyond, cut an orange in half, use a spoon to separate the inside of the orange from the peel, scoop your sherbet inside. To top it all off, add a mint leave garnish and shredded coconut. Now excuse me while I turn up my heat, enjoy my ice-cream and dream of the days of sundresses and warmer weather. Recipe after the break…

    Holy yum! I grew up on homemade orange sherbet ice cream, and adding coconut to it?! Like, can it get any better?! I’d love to try this recipe (and also eat it out of a coconut)! Simply Orange is allllways in our house, so it may be in our near future!
