Granita is an Italian iced dessert made from fruit and water, frozen and scraped with a fork into light ice crystals. This version is made with Vertical Clear Protein Water, so every serving contains protein.
With only four ingredients and minimal preparation, it is an easy treat to keep in the freezer.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle Vertical Clear Protein Water (Lemon Ice)
- 300 g watermelon, diced
- 60 g fresh raspberries
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon
Method
- Blend the protein water, fruit, lemon juice and zest in a small blender until smooth.
- Transfer to a 20 × 30 cm glass or metal dish.
- Freeze for 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and scrape with a fork to create small ice crystals. Return to the freezer.
- Scrape every 30 minutes for 2–3 hours, until the mixture is completely frozen and fluffy.
- Serve in a glass.
