  1. Dice watermelon into small 2cm x 2cm cubes, removing skin.
  2. In a blender, add all ingredients and pulse until they become liquid.

  4. Freeze for 2 hours or until just beginning to freeze. Using a fork, flake mixture (scrape fork across the toto break up ice crystals starting to form. Freeze for 4 hours, flaking mixture every 1 hour, or until completely frozen. Serve immediately.

Notes

Whilst I’ve only listed the recipe for Watermelon Granita below, you can easily substitute rockmelon and/or honey dew into this recipe for a variety of colours and flavours.

If you want to cut corners,  you can avoid flaking the mixture every hour. Whilst you won’t achieve the same desired texture, it will still taste delicious, I promise. 🙂
