Instructions
1
Zest one of the oranges and set the zest aside, then juice the oranges to get 160g of fresh juice.
2
In a small saucepan, warm the water with the sugar over low heat, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves, then remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
3
Stir the orange juice, zest and lemon juice into the cooled sugar syrup.
4
Pour the mixture into a shallow tray or tub (about 350ml / 12 fl oz) and place in the freezer.
5
After 45 minutes, scrape the mixture with a fork, breaking up any ice crystals that have formed at the edges.
6
Repeat the scraping every 30-45 minutes for about 2-3 hours, until the whole mixture is made of fine, fluffy ice crystals.
7
Scrape once more just before serving and pile into chilled glasses, 2 scoops per portion.
