Very fresh tasting with an intense orange flavour and a creamy texture. The optional sugar is not necessary. Only took 1 hour to gel in my fridge. A great summer dessert because it doesn't use the oven and heat up the kitchen. Might be fun to mix and match fruit (blueberries, raspberries, chopped peaches, grapes...) and fruit juice (apple juice, grape juice...). I will definitely be making this again... so healthy (fruit and milk) and delicious!
