So refreshing for the summer! My mom makes lemon and coffee granita too. I have to pick her brain for those, LOL. But enjoy this one in the meantime. :D

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Nothing screams summer like watermelon and this granita is one fantastic treat. Granita is an Italian frozen dessert made from fruit, sugar, and a liquid. It's frozen and scraped with a fork to create a texture like a snow cone. With a hint of tang from the lime and a bit of sweetness, this yummy granita will be sure to refresh and cool you down on a hot summer day.
