Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a food processor, combine blueberries and sugar. Blend until completely smooth. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer, using a wooden spoon to press and separate the blueberry purée from the seeds. Discard the seeds to achieve a silky-smooth texture. (10 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

In a shallow baking dish, gently stir together the strained purée, water, and lemon juice. (2 minutes)

04

Step
4 hrs

Place the dish in the freezer. Every hour, use a fork to scrape and stir the mixture, ensuring it freezes evenly and develops icy crystals. Continue this process for approximately 4 hours, or until the granita reaches your desired consistency. (4 hours)

05

Step
5 mins

Before serving, scrape the granita once more to fluff and lighten the ice crystals. Spoon the granita into chilled glasses and serve immediately. Enjoy the delightful burst of blueberry flavor!

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of elderflower liqueur or a few fresh mint leaves to the blueberry mixture before blending.
Adjust the amount of sugar based on the sweetness of your blueberries. Taste the purée before freezing and add more sugar if needed.
Chilling your serving glasses beforehand will help keep the granita frozen for longer.
