In a quart size freezer weight plastic bag combine the following:

• 1/4 cup lemon or lime juice
• 2 cups skim milk
• 1 cup sugar
• Food coloring: for lemon use 4 drops of yellow; for lime use 4 drops of green

In a 1-gallon freezer weight plastic bag, mix:

• 5 cups cubed ice
• 3/4 cup rock salt
• 1/4 cup water

To freeze: Place the 1-quart sherbet bag inside the 1-gallon ice mixture bag. Wrap the bags in a terry towel to protect your hands from the cold. Agitate 8-10 minutes.

When the sherbet feels firm when you pinch the bag, remove sherbet bag from rock salt mixture. Dry the bag on the towel. Use scissors to cut hole in a bottom corner of the bag. Squeeze mixture into serving bowls or cups.
