Cantaloupe granite is a tasty summer frozen dessert. l saw this recipe last summer in food network channel. Being a big fan of Ice Gola (Snow Cone), I liked Granita as well, as the textures looked similar. Minimal ingredients needed, and easy to prepare; best part is no cooking required!

In a blender, add cantaloupe, sugar and lime juice and blend into a puree
Put in a wide bowl and freeze. I did not cover it, and it came out good! After 3 to 4 hours, scrap it with a fork and freeze again. Leave it for 6 hours in the freezer
After the puree is completely frozen, take it out, scrap it with a fork. Granita is ready
My Notes:
You can try granita with any fruit puree Serve it immediately to avoid the granita becoming cantaloupe juice 🙂 You can experiment by sprinkling fresh chopped herbs like mint, basil etc
