    Summary

    Fresh fruit granita, a layered fruit ice that is loaded with flavor

    Ingredients

    4 cups fresh watermelon

    1/3 cup lime juice

    1/3 cup white sugar

    4 cups water

    3/4 cup sugar

    2/3 cup lemon juice

    zest of one lemon

    4 cups blueberries

    1/2 cup grape juice (or white grape juice)

    1/3 cup sugar

    Instructions

    For each individual granita:
    Add ingredients to a blender,
    Blend until smooth.
    Pour into a shallow pan (I used baking sheets, but you could use a 9x13 casserole dish)
    Cover with foil
    Put in freezer for 1 hour.
    After an hour, use a fork to scrape the top of the granita to get individual ice crystals.
    Return to freezer, freeze another 2 hours.
    Scrape with fork again, and break it up into chunks.
    Serve and enjoy!
