Zesty and fresh, this granita is perfect to finish off a meal with or to use as a cocktail base next time you have guests over. The sweet and slighty salty ice cold citrus hit is heaven on a hot day!

INGREDIENTS

METHOD

  1. Place water and sugar into a bowl and stir until sugar is dissolved.
  2. Add it to a blender. Add limes, orange and salt. Blend until smooth. Add mint and pulse until chopped finely.
  3. Pour mixture into a brownie pan and place into the freezer for one hour.
  4. After one hour, use a fork to pull the frozen edges into the middle of the pan and smooth out again. Replace into freezer for at least 3-4 hours. 
  5. When ready to serve, use a fork to grate the granita up. Fill cups with granita and add a splash of tequila if you like. Or keep it virgin and garnish with mint and lime zest.
