10- medium oranges
2 1/2 cups-water
1 cup-sugar
1/3 cup-fresh lemon juice (about 2)
Zest from one orange


1. Cut peeled oranges in half and use a citrus reamer to get the juice until you get 2 2/3 cups. (If you want a little sweeter do 2 cups orange and 2/3 cup pineapple juice)
2. Combine 2 1/2 cups of water and the sugar in a heavy bottomed sauce pan and bring to boil. Add orange zest, reduce heat to simmer for 5 minutes. Strain mixture into a bowl to remove solids. Cool liquid completely.
3. Add orange and lemon juice to the mixture and put in ice cream maker until frozen.
4. Serve!!
