Tinto de verano granita
- Preparation and cooking time
- Prep:
- plus freezing
- Easy
- Serves 4
Ingredients
- 500ml red wine (chose one lower in tannins with a softer mouthfeel)
- 375ml lemonade
- 125ml soda water
- 1 lime, plus extra to serve (or a lemon)
Method
- STEP 1
Mix together the red wine, lemonade, soda water and a good squeeze of lime juice. If you have a high-powered blender, freeze the mixture in ice cubes and then throw the lot in the blender just before serving.
- STEP 2
Alternatively, pour into a freezer box, freeze for 2 hrs, then use a fork to stir through the ice crystals and freeze again for 2 hrs, stirring again as before. Repeat until you have a slushy mixture of ice grains, then freeze until needed.
- STEP 3
When ready to serve, scrape up the ice crystals with a fork and stir. To serve, load the icy mixture into four chilled glasses. Serve with a wheel of lemon or lime to garnish.
