Ingredients

  • ¾cup water
  • ¾cup granulated sugar
  • 1tablespoon grapefruit zest
  • pinch sea or kosher salt
  • 2cups fresh grapefruit juice
  • ¾cup prosecco (Italian sparkling wine)

Preparation

  1. 1. Combine the water, sugar, grapefruit zest and salt in a small to medium saucepan set over medium-low heat. Cook mixture until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  2. 2. Pour the grapefruit juice into the sugar zest mixture and whisk together. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight. Strain mixture, and then whisk in prosecco prior to pouring into the ice cream maker.
