Sweet, juicy watermelons are one of the best things in summer. I love eating watermelon for yourself, but it is also an excellent basis for a fruity drink. Try chia watermelon fresca or watermelon agua fresca for a few refreshing watermelon drinks. And if you want a cocktail, my watermelon martinis are delicious.

What is a Granita made of?

A Granita is an Italian dessert, originally from Sicily, similar to a slushie. Granitas consist of sugar, liquid and seasoned with fruit. They can be eaten with a spoon or drunk by a straw. Granitas have a rough, iciger texture as sorbet.

How to do a granita

Granitas do not have to contain alcohol. To make this watermelon -granita recipe, first put watermelon, lime juice, rum and sugar in a blender and process them smoothly. Pour the puree into a 9 -inch metal baking pan and freeze about 1 1/2 hours.

Use a fork to scratch the mixture. Place the pan back in the freezer and freeze until you are set for almost 1 to 2 hours. Skate the Granita again with a fork to form chunky snow -capped ice crystals. Freeze and repeat every hour or so until the entire mix is frozen and shaved. Serve in Martini glasses and garnish with watermelon wages and mint.

Variations:

Sub the rum with tequila or vodka.
You can change the aroma of the Granita by replacing the watermelon with other fruits. Strawberry and lemon are other popular Granita aromas.
To make an alcohol -free grana, leave out the alcohol!
