Watermelon Granita

This was a recipe that was born out of me not attempting to be wasteful. Whilst making some watermelon juice, I didn’t are attempting to honest appropriate throw out the pulp so I left it a miniature juicy, added some easy syrup, after which popped it within the freezer. It’s now surely one of my favourite summertime treats.

Need to you would moreover be making the granita sooner than time, this may maybe occasionally presumably moreover honest agency up barely loads within the freezer. I indicate “defrosting” it

By the skill, right here’s also a nice depressed for making watermelon margaritas. Splash in a miniature tequila and lend a hand in a salt-rimmed glass! —Rach Kim

5. Combine collectively the cooled lime easy syrup with the watermelon pulp and pour right into a shallow dish and assign within the freezer.
6. Every 30 minutes, test on the granita and use a fork to jam it apart unless it resembles a slushy snow. This direction of may maybe presumably moreover honest rob 2 to about a hours.
