Now I’ve talked on and on and ON about my favorite summer treat, my Lemon Sour Cream Pie. But this summer I discovered something new. During GNO with my daughters a few months ago we went out for frozen yogurt while waiting for our movie. They had Grapefruit flavor and I decided to taste test it. AMAZING! I ended up buying, and eating, an entire bowl of it.
So I decided I’d have to make it myself. I played around with some recipes and created something equally amazing. And by amazing I mean I’ve made it about 6 times in the last month and haven’t shared much… In fact I’ve pretty much eaten every batch myself!
Grapefruit Frozen Yogurt
2/3 C Grapefruit Juice (takes about 1-2 grapefruit)
3/4 C Sugar
1 Tbsp grapefruit rind
1 C Cream
2 C strained plain yogurt
Juice the grapefruits. To get 2/3rd C it took me 1 1/2 regular sized grapefruit, but only one extra large sized. Now add your sugar!
Add the cream and stir!
And the rind…
And finally the strained yogurt! You should have about 4 C of mixture now. I kind of wish it had a stronger color so I’ve considered adding some peach food coloring, but have always been in such a hurry to enjoy my frozen yogurt so I haven’t ever bothered. But if I make it for anyone else I’d probably do that to make it pretty!
Follow the directions on your ice cream maker and freeze the mixture! Mine takes about 30 mins until it looks like this! Mmmmm….
I serve and eat about 1/4th of the batch right away! The rest I freeze and eat over the next few days! I usually let it thaw just a BIT before eating. It’s so so SO creamy and so so SO delicious! Mmmm! Just writing this I wish I had a batch left so I could enjoy some RIGHT NOW!
Pin It 
I don’t really like grapefruit, but I have to admit that this looks delicious!! I think I might need to try it.

It’s amazing, but you could make it with any citrus. Lemon, orange, or a mixture… SO good!

want to try this one out… but I might have to wait until after my crazy nutrition class is over… just so I don’t have to own up to eating 7 servings of the stuff in one night

Luckily frozen yogurt is better for you than ice cream, right? And SO delicious!

This really sounds yummy! I’m going to ask Santa for an ice cream machine this year! I’ve pinned this so I could find it again! Thanks for posting!
