Recipe by Art Smith Granita is a light dessert, one you could enjoy any day of the week. The hibiscus flowers make it extra special and elevate the simple ice to dinner-party status. The trick to the granita's texture is to stir, or mash, it several time

Ingredients

  • 6 dried hibiscus flowers, about 1/2 ounce
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 4 whole fresh mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Bring 2 cups water to a boil. Remove from the heat and steep the hibiscus flowers in the water for 5 to 7 minutes. Discard the hibiscus flowers. Add the sugar to the hot water and stir until melted. You may need to return it to the heat for a minute or two to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Add the lime juice and chopped mint leaves.
  2. Pour the liquid into a shallow bowl and place in the freezer. Freeze for 3 to 4 hours while mashing the large chunks of ice every 30 minutes or so.
