Serves four
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 ½ cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (Meyer would be great) 
OR 1 ½ cups freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1 tsp. Lemon zest


Place the sugar and the water is a saucepan and cook stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Turn off the heat and allow the syrup to cool down completely. 

Add the lemon juice through a sieve into the cool syrup.  Add the lemon zest and mix. 

Place the mixture into a glass container and place it in the freezer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.  Remove it from the freezer and rake it with a fork from one end to the other.  The liquid will start freezing. 

Return the container to the freezer and repeat the process every 30 minutes, 3 or 4 more times until the granita is fully frozen. 

Serve the granita in a small bowl with some berries (optional).  Enjoy!
