Photo: Cranberry Granita Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups cranberry juice
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup vodka
- 6 fresh cranberries, for garnish
Directions
Whisk the cranberry juice and sugar in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat just until the sugar dissolves. Pour the cranberry mixture into a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Cool completely. Whisk in the lime juice and vodka. Freeze until the granita becomes slushy, about 2 hours. Using fork, stir to blend. Continue freezing the granita until frozen, stirring every hour to form crystals, at least 5 hours or overnight.
Divide the granita among 6 dessert glasses. Garnish with fresh cranberries, if desired, and serve.

This came out great - It was a tad too sweet. However, it certainly has an after taste that will leave you wanting more. Perfect for hot afternoons and even summer dinners!

I didn't have any cranberry juice in the house. I did use a mixture of cran-rasberry and orange juice. While reaching for the vodka I picked up tequila
instead and by that time it was to late. I went ahead anyway. The outcome was just delicious and I don't like tequila!! I didn't want to wait for summer so I'm
enjoying it now while writing this. Sister's are going to love this.
