Total time:
Serves: 8
- 6 cups of Fresh Watermelon, diced
- Juice of 1 large lime
- ¼ cup sugar (do adjust according to the sweetness of your watermelon)
- ¼ cup water
- In a small pot, cook water and sugar till the sugar is completely dissolved. Keep this simple syrup aside.
- Place all ingredients in a blender and process till smooth.
- This is an optional step but I like to strain the puree to catch any seeds or watermelon bits.
- Pour into a metal baking pan and freeze mixture for 1 hour or until semi firm.
- Using a fork, scrape granita to form icy flakes. Keep in freezer again.
- Repeat this step for 2-3 times until you get nice ice crystals.
- Serve in pretty glasses top with mint or a wedge of lime.
