Muskmelon Granita Granita is a frozen icy dessert which is usually made using fruit juice or flavourings, water and sugar. I tried it with muskmelon juice with the addition of some fresh mint leaves. It is very refreshing and delicious especially in this hot season.

  • 3 cups muskmelon pieces
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 25 mint leaves (optional)

Instructions

  • Add muskmelon pieces, sugar, water and mint leaves to a mixer jar and blend it to make juice. Strain it to make sure it doesn't have any small pieces.
  • Now add the juice in a rectangle container which is a bit bigger in size so that the layer is not very thick. Now cover it and keep it in the freezer for 2 hours. After 2 hours, take it out and scrape it with a fork so that it resembles to ice crystals. Again put it back in the freezer until ready to be served.
  • Garnish it with a spring of mint and serve.
