Ingredients
- 6 organic lemons juice only
- 220 g white sugar
- 1 litre water
Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together lemon juice, sugar and water, until the sugar has dissolved.
- Transfer the granita mixture into a large metal container (a loaf tin works great), cover with cling film, and place in the freezer for half an hour.
- Use a wooden spoon to stir vigorously the mixture and break any ice crystals, then transfer the tin back in the freezer.
- Repeat every 30 minutes for 2-3 times, or until your granita has reached a velvety icy texture. Alternatively, you can also use an immersion blender to break the ice crystals. Once it reaches the desired consistency, serve straight away.
Notes
- Store your granita in an air-tight container in the freezer for up to 1 day. Let it defrost for about 10 minutes at room temperature, then give it a nice mix and serve.
