Ingredients
- 2 cups Orange Crush Soda
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 1 cup Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Zest of 1 Fresh Orange
- 1/4 tsp Salt
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Collect all the ingredients needed: Orange Crush soda, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, fresh orange zest, and salt to ensure a smooth preparation process.
- Mix Soda and Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Orange Crush soda and the heavy cream thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and slightly foamy.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk, freshly grated orange zest, and salt into the soda and cream mixture, stirring carefully to maintain a smooth texture without deflating the mixture.
- Freeze the Mixture: Transfer the combined mixture into an airtight container, seal it properly, and place it in the freezer for 4 to 6 hours, or until the sherbet becomes firm and scoopable.
- Serve: Once the sherbet is set, scoop it into bowls or cones and enjoy this refreshing citrus frozen dessert immediately.
Notes
- Do not over-whisk the mixture to avoid losing the soda’s carbonation.
- You can substitute Orange Crush with other orange-flavored sodas for a slightly different twist.
- For a dairy-free version, try using coconut cream instead of heavy cream and sweetened condensed coconut milk.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, stir the sherbet every 1–2 hours during freezing to break up ice crystals.
- Adding a small pinch of salt enhances the citrus flavors and balances the sweetness.
