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.

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.
