Ingredients

  • 3 cups grapefruit juice , I juiced 5 grapefruits to get this amount
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tbs coconut cream , divided (make sure your coconut cream has no preservatives in it)
  • 3 Tbs honey
  • 1/2 cup almond milk

Instructions

  • Mix 3 cups grapefruit juice, 1/2 cup coconut cream, and 3 Tbs of honey in a sauce pan, and heat on the stove over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until the honey is dissolved into the mixture, about 5 mins. Side note: you can put more or less honey in yours. Taste the mixture to see if you would like it to be sweeter, prior to freezing it.
  • Let the mixture cool a bit, and then pour it into ice cube trays. ( I used 2 ice cube trays).
  • Freeze for 3- 3 1/2 hours, then put the grapefruit ice-cubes into the blender, with 1/2 cup almond milk and 2 Tbs coconut cream. Blend everything together. You'll need to scrape down the sides of the blender a few times, and mix until you have desired consistency. If the mixture is too icey and frozen, it helps to pour everything out of the blender into a large bowl and then back into the blender for one final mix.  ( If the sorbet is too liquidy, however, put it into a tupperware and into the freezer for a bit).
  • Scoop, serve, and enjoy!
  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

One thing worth noting... don't use a heavy duty juice extractor to juice your grapefruit. Make sure to use a citrus juicer, like this one, to juice the grapefruit here.
