Description

The most refreshing margarita style granita


Ingredients

Scale

6 cups cubed red seedless watermelon, frozen*

2 limes, peeled

1 orange, peeled, seeded

1/4 cup water

4 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons tequila

2 tablespoons cointreau or other orange flavored liqueur


Instructions

  1. To freeze watermelon place it in a single layer on a foil lined rimmed baking pan; freeze several hours until solid. (I usually just do this the night before or early in the day).
  2. Combine all ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth.
  3. Can be eaten right away which makes it more like a sorbet or pour mixture into a metal 8-inch pan and freeze until solid.
  4. Scrape with the tines of a fork and scoop into serving dishes. Garnish as desired.
