Ingredients
- 7 cups honeydew, chopped (1,190 grams)
- 5 oz vodka
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 oz lime juice
- 6 prigs fresh mint
Instructions
- Add water and sugar to a small pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, then remove from heat, add 4 of the mint sprigs, and cover for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the mint sprigs and discard.
- Add honeydew, simple syrup, lime juice, and fresh mint leaves from 2 remaining mint sprigs to a high speed blender. Blend until smooth, then pour into a baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, remove from freezer and scrape using a fork or spoon. Spread evenly into pan and freeze for another hour.
- Scrape the mixture again using a fork or spoon, then scoop into serving glasses. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a more granita-like consistency, decrease the amount of vodka to 4 oz and scrape the melon mixture every 30 minutes while freezing.
- These can be made kid friendly, just skip the vodka. Be sure you use a touch of honey in its place to help keep the granita from freezing solid.
