MARGARITA GRANITA
Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the water and sugar to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring, until sugar has dissolved, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in lime zest and juice, tequila, orange juice, and salt.
- Pour mixture into a 2-quart shallow nonreactive baking dish; let cool, then cover tightly with plastic wrap. Freeze until set, about 6 hours (or up to 1 day). Using the tines of a fork, scrape mixture until flakes form. Granita is best served immediately, but can be covered and frozen up to several hours. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
- Fast freeze
- Chilling the dish in the freezer before pouring in the lime mixture will help the granita freeze faster.
- serving suggestion
- Spoon granita into salt-rimmed glasses, cocktail style: Rub rims with a lime wedge (or dip in water), then dip in a shallow bowl of coarse salt.
