Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • For a creamier texture, strain your Greek yogurt through a cheesecloth for an hour before mixing to remove excess whey, resulting in a richer frozen yogurt.
  • If you want extra orange flavor, add a teaspoon of finely grated orange zest to the mixture before freezing—the zest infuses the yogurt with fragrant citrus oils.
  • For an adult twist, stir in a tablespoon of orange liqueur (like Grand Marnier or Cointreau); this enhances flavor and also helps keep the frozen yogurt scoopable.
  • To serve with flair, freeze the mixture in popsicle molds or spoon it into hollowed-out orange halves for a fun, edible presentation at parties.

Expert Tips

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest results. Low-fat or non-fat yogurt can result in an icy texture.
  • Sweeten to taste. Start with a smaller amount of sweetener than the recipe calls for and add more until you reach your desired level of sweetness.
  • Don't overmix the frozen yogurt. Overmixing can incorporate too much air, leading to a less dense final product.

Storage Instructions

  • Store leftover frozen yogurt in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. Allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before scooping.
