I used fresh fruit but substituted the oj with fruit cocktail that was in the house. Rita's idea of adding almond liquer sounds really worth trying as i served my sorbet with almonds on top and everyone liked it! PS: it got a little too sour

I used frozen peaches, cut the sugar in 1/2 and used orange juice concentrate with almond extract! Put it all into my vita mix and walla no refreezing or waiting just make and eat! I didn`t like the orange in it so if I make a gain I`ll go for just almond liqueur. Kids were enjoying this that is why I opted for the oj.
