Ingredients
- 4 cups ripe strawberries, washed and sliced
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Make it step by step
- In a bowl, combine strawberries and sugar. Let this sit for 30 minutes or longer to enhance the flavors. Add water and purée strawberries. Adjust according to taste; you may need to add more sugar or more lime juice if too sweet. Strain to remove seeds and pour strained mixture into a glass lasagna pan. Freeze until mixture is frozen (about 1 1/2 hours), stirring edges into center every 20 to 30 minutes. Use a fork to scrape granita into flaky crystals.
- The Culinary Chase’s Note: For an adult version, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of vodka. Enjoy!
