Adapted from “Sunday Suppers at Lucques,” by Suzanne Goin with Teri Gelber (Knopf, 2005)

Time: 10 minutes

6 large scoops vanilla ice cream

3 cups freshly squeezed tangerine juice (from about 12 tangerines) or orange juice (see note)

Seltzer.

Divide ice cream among 6 medium-size glasses or cups. Add 1/2 cup tangerine juice to each cup and top off with seltzer. Serve with a straw.

Yield: 6 servings.

Note: Fresh orange juice can be used instead of tangerine juice, but it should be very sweet and not too acidic. Try adding superfine sugar to taste.
