Frosty Watermelon-Lime Granita Delight

Watermelon Granita is one of the easiest dessert recipes to whip up on a hot summer day!
This flexible Italian shaved ice recipe can be made with any kind of fruit that you have on hand.
Originating in Sicily, granita is a simple Italian dessert made of sweetened fruit purée that has been frozen and shaved into an icy, crystalized treat. While granita and sorbet are created from the same base ingredients, these frozen treats differ slightly in texture. Sorbet has a smooth, creamy quality, reminiscent of gelato or ice cream, while granita has a flaky texture comparable to a snow cone. This Italian staple is a dairy-free and gluten-free dessert that requires only a few ingredients including fruit, sugar, and water.
