Grapefruit Ice

1.1/2 pkts marshmallows

2 cups grapefruit juice

1 small can Carnation milk (chilled)

Method: Melt marshmallows and grapefruit juice. Beat Carnation milk until stiff, add melted marshmallow and grapefruit juice. Pour into ice cream trays and freeze.

Cut a slice of grapefruit for each serve. Cut halfway through each slice. Lay in shallow dish and cover with Creme de Menthe liqueur. Soak for several hours. Turn over once to ensure it is well coloured. Serve grapefruit ice in champagne glasses topped with the grapefruit slice twisted into an S shape. Pour remaining liqueur over each serve as well as some thin fresh cream. [Serves 6]
