Homemade Sherbet

July 24, 2007 by KellyH.

I can’t remember if I ever tried this with my kids, but I think I’m going to.

Orange Sherbet

3 cups milk

1 cup sugar

1 package unsweetened, powdered, orange-flavored drink mix

Mix all ingredients until dissolved and well mixed. Pour into a shallow pan and place in freezer. After about one hour, stir. Stir again after another hour. Freeze until solid. Makes about 3 cups of orange sherbet (or whatever flavor you use).

(Hmmm… I always thought it was called sherbert. Guess I’ve been pronouncing it wrong all these years!)

I discovered my mispronounciation when I looked up this recipe at the Food Network. I found a really yummy looking Red Raspberry Sherbet that’s probaby lower in calories than the orange one I listed above. And I just happen to have some raspberries in my freezer!
