Campari & Orange Granita

 

Ingredients

· 1 cup sugar

· 3 cups freshly squeezed orange juice

· 1 cup Campari

· 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

 

Steps

1) For the syrup, combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook just until the sugar is dissolved.

2) Pour the sugar syrup into a 10x13x2-inch ceramic (non-metal) dish and stir in the orange juice, Campari, and lemon juice. Place the dish on a level surface in the freezer and freeze for one hour. Rake the entire mixture, including the edges, with the tines of a dinner fork and freeze for another 30 minutes. Continue raking and freezing the granita every 30 minutes, until it’s firm and granular. It should take 2 to 3 hours total. The granita is best served within a few hours. Spoon the granita into pretty bowls or steamed martini glasses and serve frozen.
