RED WINE GRANITA
If you've got a couple of cups of red wine left over, why not transform it into something delicious and different, like my granita? Enhanced with a mixed berry simple syrup, this fruity dessert is oh-so refreshing and great to keep in the freezer when you have a hankering for something sweet.

Steps:
- Combine the frozen berries, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Puree in a food processor and strain through a fine wire-mesh strainer, pressing the fruit with a wooden spoon to release the juices. Let cool. (Or place over an ice water bath to cool quickly.)
- Combine the syrup with the wine in a bowl. Pour into a 9-inch square metal pan. Freeze, scraping the mixture occasionally with a fork to create ice crystals, until firm, 4 to 6 hours. Spoon the granita into serving glasses and garnish with mint and fresh berries.
