Notes
- You can use this recipe and replace the strawberries with any in-season juicy fruit of your choice to make a different flavor. Be sure to taste the puree before you freeze, as you might need to adjust the amount of sugar or lemon juice.
- When tasting the puree before freezing, be sure the flavor is intense. Freezing will dull the taste a bit so the more flavorful the puree, the better granita you will have. If your fruit is not quite at its peak, a little extra lemon and sugar can help.
- If, after a few days, your granita has frozen into a solid block, you can re-scrape it with a fork, let it soften for a few minutes and run it through a blender, or re-melt it and start the freezing process again.
- Out of ice? Add a spoonful of this to your favorite cocktail for a fresh, summery drink. Tequila and vodka would be perfect.
- Go the extra mile and serve granita with a big dollop of our 2-ingredient vanilla ice cream and a few fresh mint leaves on top. You get refreshing, sweet creamy, soft, and crunchy. The best of both worlds!
