Pink Grapefruit Granita

Servings: 8 -10 servings (or 4-5 if you
Author: Lisa Le

Ingredients

  • - 4 cups grapefruit juice I used 5 large grapefruits
  • - 3/4 cup white sugar

Instructions

  • Juice your grapefruits, also make space in your freezer for a 9x13 baking sheet to lie flat.
  • Either using a small saucepan, or a microwaveable glass container, heat up 1 cup grapefruit juice and 3/4 cup sugar at 30 second intervals until the sugar has dissolved (stirring between intervals).
  • Once the sugar has dissolved, combine the sugar grapefruit syrup and the rest of the grapefruit juice.
  • Transfer to the 9x13 baking sheet, and freeze for 30 minute intervals, using a fork to scrape and break up the ice pieces until it resembles glittery, shaved ice. This may take 3-4 hours depending on the strength of your freezer.
  • Serve immediately, because if left in the freezer for long without some scraping/breaking up with a fork, the pieces will stick together and you'll kind of have frozen chunks of shaved ice. (Plus, my batch barely lasted that long anyway).
