This classic all-American recipe is a great way to cool down on a hot summer day. Serve it frozen as a dessert or slightly thawed as a slushy drink. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 cup water |
1/2 cup mint leaves, chopped |
1 (64-ounce) bottle ruby red grapefruit juice |
garnish: fresh mint sprig |
Directions:
1. Bring sugar and 1 cup water to a boil in a saucepan. Add mint; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into an 8-cup container; discard mint. Add grapefruit juice.
2. Divide mixture into 2 (1-quart) freezer containers; cover and freeze at least 4 hours. Let stand 30 minutes before serving. Scrape with a spatula, or process, in batches, in a food processor. Garnish, if desired.
