This recipe was originally published in the LCBO Food & Drink Magazine's Summer 2004 issue. This simple fresh tasting granita features the delicious flavours of maple syrup enhanced with ginger, lemon and mint. This granita looks great served in martini glasses. Serve this with Amaretti biscuits such as #rz 200134. These crunchy little Italian cookies have a lovely almond flavour that compliments the maple.
