MOJITO GRANITA
Steps:
- Add the water and sugar to a small, nonreactive saucepan, then grate the zest from the 2 limes directly into the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Reserve 5 of the mint leaves, add the remaining mint to the saucepan, and remove from the heat. Cover and let stand for 8 minutes, then remove the cover and let cool to room temperature.
- Once cool, strain the mixture into the container you plan to freeze the granita in, pressing firmly on the leaves to extract all the flavorful liquid. Discard the mint leaves. Stir in the lime juice and rum, then finely chop the reserved 5 mint leaves and add them as well. Freeze according to the instructions for freezing granita on page 145.
- Perfect Pairing
- If you love the refreshing taste of mint as much as I do, pair this with a scoop of Fresh Mint Ice Cream (page 99).

- In a small saucepan, combine mint leaves, sugar, and rum. Simmer over low heat until the mixture bubbles slightly around the edges, then take off heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, dice your watermelon and place into a blender along with the juice of 2 limes (1/3-1/2 cup) and salt.
- Once cooled, strain the rum sugar mixture through a fine mesh strainer, saving the liquid. Squeeze the mint as best you can to release its natural oils. Pour the strained rum sugar into the blender.
- Mix everything on high speed for about 1 minute, until everything comes together smoothly and no solid bits remain. Pour into a large sheet pan, then place in freezer.
