My mother-in-law, Betty, made this out of a 1950's orange juice advertisement she got in the mail. I updated it by using an ice cream freezer and not freezer trays. This sherbet is easy and so cool and refreshing on a hot day. Only has 4 ingredients !

This is one of the creamiest orange sherbets I have ever enjoyed! Great for kids of all ages.
