this came out great! i didn't have the right strainer so i left the pulp and rind in and it added to the tang which we enjoyed. next time i might try adding my homemade Limoncello.
Grapefruit-Buttermilk Sherbet
Vodka keeps the sherbet from freezing rock hard, but it's optional. For a delicious garnish, boil julienne strips of grapefruit rind in simple syrup for 30 minutes; drain and toss in sugar.
