    Made with 1 TB zeste and lime juice. Nice flavor if you like orange creamsicles, but as an orange sherbet, it was way to sweet for me. Will have to keep experimenting. Surely the boys will like it, so it won't get tossed.

    I love this and so does my boyfriend and his parents. I used my Kitchenaid ice cream maker and lime instead of lemon. I did not use the zest as I just forgot to! And although I squeezed the oranges which was a heavy duty job, I did it while watching my favorite TV show so it was not so bad. Great flavor and texture.

    Too sweet for us :o( Although, I still gave 4 stars simply because my oranges were really sweet so the extra cup of sugar just didn't work for us . Also, the orange zest didn't incorporate like it should have. The orange flavor was really good (less the zest which was yukky. I think I will try it again with less sugar, no orange zest and 1/2 and 1/2 or cream instead of milk.
