3. Juice the grapefruits, oranges, and lime. There should be about 3 cups of juice in total. Whisk together with the lime zest and the cooled citrus simple syrup.

While the unit is running, pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl. Allow to churn until thicknened, about 22 to 24 minutes. The sorbet will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer sorbet to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.
