Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

For the Simple Syrup:
1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1/8 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves (about 3 sprigs)
1/2 tablespoon fresh lime zest, from 1 medium lime
For the Granita:
4 to 5 large pink or ruby red grapefruit
1/2 cup chilled water, optional
Fresh mint sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the water to a boil. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Reduce the heat to low, add the mint leaves and lime zest, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, cover, and allow the syrup to steep and cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Strain the syrup into a small bowl using a fine-mesh sieve. Discard the mint and lime. Set aside.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Juice enough grapefruit to produce 2 cups of juice. You can leave any pulp or strain it out if you prefer.
  • Pour the grapefruit juice into a medium bowl, add 3/4 cup of the mint-lime syrup. Stir well, taste, and add more syrup to make it sweeter, if desired. If you'd like a milder flavor, stir in 1/4 cup of water, taste again, and add more if needed. This is your opportunity to perfect the granita's flavor, but make the liquid a little bold because it mellows a bit in the freezer.
  • Transfer the mixture to an 8- or 9-inch square metal baking pan, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for 1 hour.
  • Use a fork to scrape the frozen parts of the granita and mix it with portions that are still liquid. Repeat this process every hour until the granita is completely frozen. This may take 4 to 5 hours, or longer. The granita should have a flaky snow-like ice texture.
  • When ready to serve, fork the granita one last time to make it fluffy, then spoon it into frozen dessert cups, small bowls, or stemware. Garnish with sprigs of fresh mint and serve immediately.

GRAPEFRUIT GRANITA



Grapefruit Granita image

This is probably the easiest dessert in my whole repertoire but it may also be one of the most perfect. It's bright, clean and refreshing flavor is a welcome ending to any meal. When I serve it in a small wide-mouthed glass and top it with a little sprig of mint, it looks really beautiful. You can make this a couple of days in advance but then you'll want to cover it well with saran wrap so it doesn't absorb any freezer flavor.
