Lemon Lime Granita

This granita recipe combines juicy lemons and limes with the perfect
amount of sweetness for a most refreshing treat!
I like to think of it as a sophisticated snow cone.

Ingredients:

1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (2 large lemons)
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice (1 small lime)

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan.
Bring to a boil, and cook until the sugar is dissolved (about a minute).
Pour into a 9x7 inch glass or metal baking pan, and allow to cool
approximately 20 minutes.
Then place in the freezer.
Stir after 35 minutes with a fork, scraping any ice into the mixture.
Stir, and fluff with a fork every 20 minutes until no liquid remains.
This process assures that the granita will be fluffy.

Serves 4
