Transcript

How have I been living under a rock? Because I didn't know that this was a popular drink. I thought that the main Fanta flavors were Fanta Lemon and Fanta Orange. Not realizing that Fanta Fruit Twist is actually up there. When we were deciding what July flavors to make today, when they suggested this, I was like, hmm, but then all the stuff was like, absolutely yes. So let me know if you think this is going to be a bit of you. And can I just start off by saying look how gorgeous this color of sorbet is? I've also realized something that I didn't know, and that is that sorbet is a lot harder to mold than gelato is. Guys, once we made both the Fanta Lemon and the Fanta Fruit Twist, I've got to say, I don't know whether I actually prefer this one. If you are coming into store, definitely try both of these and let me know what your verdict is. And this is the finish result, guys, I can't lie, I'm absolutely obsessed.
