Citrus Granita...Great for the Holidays!




CITRUS GRANITA

Servings: 20 (1/2 cup servings)

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
8-3/4 cups water
3 cups sugar
3 cups fresh orange juice (about 4 oranges)

INSTRUCTIONS:

You can serve this Granita with Lemon-Poached Oranges, although either dish tastes great by itself.

1. Combine all ingredients in a sauce-pan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 1 minute or until sugar dissolves; stir constantly. Remove from heat; cool. Pour into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Cover; freeze at least 8 hours or until firm.

2. Remove dish from freezer, and scrape the entire mixture with a fork until fluffy. Store the remaining Granita in an airtight container; cover and freeze up to 1 month.
