Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 liter orange soda
  • 6 ounces sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Gather 1 liter of orange soda and 6 ounces of sweetened condensed milk. Prepare a large mixing bowl, a whisk or spoon, and either an ice cream maker or a freezer-safe baking pan.
  2. Mix the Ingredients: Pour the orange soda into the large mixing bowl. Slowly add the sweetened condensed milk, stirring gently until combined. Avoid vigorous stirring to prevent excessive foaming.
  3. Using an Ice Cream Maker: Pour the soda and milk mixture into an ice cream maker and start according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Let it churn for about 20-30 minutes until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. For a firmer texture, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours.
  4. Manual Freezing Method: Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe baking pan. Freeze for 1 hour, then remove and stir to break up ice crystals. Repeat this stirring process 2-3 times each hour. After that, freeze undisturbed for 6-8 hours until firm.
  5. Serving: If the sherbet is too firm after freezing, let it sit at room temperature briefly to soften. Scoop and enjoy your homemade orange sherbet!

Notes

  • Use gentle stirring when mixing to avoid excessive foaming from the soda.
  • The ice cream maker method produces a smoother texture faster, while manual freezing requires more time and effort but no special equipment.
  • For a more intense orange flavor, you may add a teaspoon of orange zest if desired.
  • Make sure to use a freezer-safe container for the manual freezing method.
  • Allow the sherbet to soften slightly before scooping for easier serving.
