Orange Crush Sherbet Recipe

This Orange Crush Sherbet is a sweet, creamy, and tangy frozen treat made with the refreshing flavor of Orange Crush soda. It’s perfect for summer gatherings or as a fun dessert to cool off on warm days!
Ingredients
- 2 cups Orange Crush soda (chilled)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 tablespoon orange zest (optional, for extra orange flavor)
Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Orange Crush soda and sweetened condensed milk until well combined. The soda will slightly foam up as it mixes.
- Add the heavy cream, and vanilla extract (if using). Stir until smooth and fully combined.
- If you’d like a more intense orange flavor, add the orange zest and mix again.
Step 2: Freeze the Mixture
- Pour the mixture into a shallow dish or a loaf pan. You can also use an ice cream maker if you have one.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid, and place it in the freezer.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm. If you're using a shallow dish, you can stir the mixture every 30 minutes for the first few hours to prevent ice crystals from forming, but it’s optional.
Step 3: Serve and Enjoy
- Once the sherbet has fully set and is firm, scoop it into bowls or cones.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing, creamy treat!
Tips for the Best Orange Crush Sherbet
- Use chilled ingredients: Make sure the Orange Crush soda is chilled before mixing to help the sherbet freeze faster and more evenly.
- Ice cream maker: If you’re using an ice cream maker, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for freezing the mixture for a smoother texture.
- Storage: Store leftover sherbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften it slightly.
