    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.
