With the Holidays past, many of us are trying to shed a few of those "Sure, I'll have another eggnog!" pounds. I find that what I miss the most in dieting is that little something sweet. You won't miss a thing, except the calories in this fabulous Mai Tai Sorbet. Very refreshing and a mere 84 slimming calories. Enjoy! |

1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup passion fruit juice
1/2 cup guava nectar
6 tablespoons rum
1/4 cup Splenda
4 teaspoons grenadine
1 tablespoon lime juice
fresh mint sprigs for garnish
Combine all ingredients, except mint garnish in a pitcher, and stir until Splenda is well dissolved. Transfer mixture to an ice cream maker and process until freezing, about 20 minutes. Transfer sorbet to a container, cover and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
This can be prepared 2 days ahead; keep frozen.
Freeze 4 martini glasses for 1 hour. Scoop sorbet into frozen glasses. Garnish with
mint sprig.
Serves 4
Note: If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can put the mixture in a bowl, add 1/2 cup water, and freeze until
semi-firm, whisking occasionally, about three hours. Cover and freeze until solid. Using a fork, scrape surface to form crystals, scoop crystals into frozen glasses, garnish with mint, and serve immediately.
