WATERMELON GRANITA



Watermelon Granita image

The granita is a cross between sorbet and Italian ice, and there's a cool trick to get the right icy texture. My version is made with watermelon and a little vodka for a perfect adults-only frozen treat.

Categories     dessert

Time 5h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 cups watermelon, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup sugar
Juice of one lime, or lemon
1 2/3 cups watermelon, finely diced
Good quality vodka, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Slice, peel, and cube 6 cups of watermelon. Combine coarsely chopped watermelon, sugar, and lime juice in a bowl and let stand until macerated and juicy, 25 minutes.
  • Process in a blender until just smooth, then pass through a China cap using the back of a ladle. Transfer to a shallow metal tray and remove the foam on top. Freeze, stirring and scraping occasionally with a fork until crystals form and granita is frozen (2-4 hours). Every 20-30 minutes, scrape a fork through the mixture to create the crystals.
  • To serve, divide finely diced watermelon among chilled serving glasses and top with granita. Drizzle with vodka (optional) and serve immediately.

It's frozen and scraped with a fork to create a texture like a snow cone.
