Cantaloupe Granita

Cantaloupe granite is a tasty summer frozen dessert.

l saw this recipe last summer in food network channel. Being a big fan of Ice Gola (Snow Cone), I liked Granita as well, as the textures looked similar. Minimal ingredients needed, and easy to prepare; best part is no cooking required!

Notes

You can try granita with any fruit puree
Serve it immediately to avoid the granita becoming cantaloupe juice 🙂
You can experiment by sprinkling fresh chopped herbs like mint, basil etc
