Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole Oranges
- 2 whole Grapefruits
- 1 whole Lemons
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Pistachios, shelled and chopped
- 10 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the oranges, grapefruits, and lemon by cutting away the skin and pith. Use a sharp knife to segment the fruit, removing any seeds. Place the citrus segments in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the honey and vanilla extract over the citrus segments and gently toss to coat. Set the bowl aside to marinate while preparing the rest of the dessert.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together using a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
To assemble, spoon a generous portion of the marinated citrus segments into individual serving bowls or glasses.
Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream.
Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the top for a crunchy garnish.
Finish each dessert with a mint leaf for a burst of color and optional flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing symphony of citrus and cream!
