Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine the juice and Sauternes in a medium bowl. Add the sugar to taste and stir until dissolved. Pour into an 8-by-10-inch pan. Place in the freezer for several hours or until completely frozen. Meanwhile, segment the grapefruit, discarding the membrane. Cut each segment into quarters.

  2. Step 2

    Scrape the ice with a thin-tined fork to create loose crystals. Transfer to a large, airtight container. Stir in the grapefruit segments. Freeze again.

  3. Step 3

    To serve, divide the granité into six dessert bowls. Pour * teaspoon Grand Marnier over each and dust with zest.
