This makes a wonderful transition between courses, resetting the tastebuds so they can fully enjoy the wonderful new flavors to come!

  • 4 large red or pink grapefruits
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crumbled
  • 1 tbsp garnish (candied lime rind strips or something similar)

Squeeze enough juice from grapefruits to measure 2 cups & pour through a sieve into a large bowl. In a small saucepan, bring water, sugar & tarragon to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved, & simmer for 5 minutes. Whisk syrup into grapefruit juice.

Freeze mixture in an ice cream maker. Transfer sorbet to an airtight container & put in freezer to harden. Sorbet keeps one week.

Serve sorbet garnished with candied strips.
