Steps:
- In a blender, blend the lime juice and watermelon together, creating watermelon water.
- Strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer to remove any seeds.
- Place 1/2 cup of the watermelon water into a saucepan and add the sugar, lime zest and ginger coins. Bring the mixture to a simmer to dissolve the sugar and infuse the liquid with the ginger and lime flavor. Set aside to cool.
- Add the grated ginger to the remaining watermelon water. Once the syrup is cool, remove the ginger coins and mix into the watermelon water. Pour the mixture into a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish. Place the dish into the freezer to chill.
- Every 30 minutes, scrape the mixture with a fork to break up the ice crystals and to keep it light and fluffy. Continue scraping every 30 minutes for at least 2 hours. Scrape the granita into elegant glasses and sprinkle with fleur de sel.
- Cook's Notes:.
- Taste your watermelon, this will tell you how much sugar to add to your simple syrup.
- The fork helps to create ice crystals that will help give you a slushy consistency.
