Watermelon Granita is a classic frozen dessert from Italy.
Granita is a frozen Italian dessert. It is one of the simplest desserts we can make with any fruit and just three ingredients.
Summer calls for chilled treats as ice-creams, popsicles, granita, sorbet and loads of chilled water.
Granita is similar to sorbet but it is usually made without a gelato machine. It is one of the simplest dessert you can make at home. Watermelon, lemon, strawnberries, coffee, almond are a few kind of granita one often hears about. Here, the dessert is frozen for three hours, it is then scraped with a fork and again put in the freezer for an hour. Scrape it again and serve.

Sending this to Foofies_Redoing Old Post_132. Watermelon Granita was one of the first few posts I wrote when I started blogging. Today, on 27/7/2024, I have redone the whole post but the recipe remains the same.

It definitely is the easiest dessert to make. Watermelon Granita is what I make often when the weather is too hot. It is so refreshing and cooling too.
Love such kinds of desserts, so healthy and so easy.
