Citrus and Campari Granita image

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
3/4 cup campari

Steps:

  • 1 Place a 13 × 9 × 2-inch pan in the freezer to chill at least 15 minutes. Combine the water and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Stir well. Remove from the heat and let cool. Chill the syrup. 2 Stir together the chilled syrup, juices, Campari, and orange zest. 3 Remove the chilled pan from the freezer and pour the mixture into the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for 30 minutes or until a 1-inch border of ice crystals forms around the edges. Stir the ice crystals into the center of the mixture. Return the pan to the freezer and continue freezing, stirring every 30 minutes, until all of the liquid is frozen, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Serve immediately, or scrape the mixture into a plastic container, cover, and store in the freezer up to 24 hours. 4 Remove from the freezer to soften about 15 minutes before serving, if necessary.

This granita was a disaster! It never set properly and ended up being a slushy mess.

I found this granita to be a bit bland. It needed more flavor, perhaps some additional citrus or herbs.

This granita is a bit too tart for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with more sugar.

I'm not a huge fan of Campari, but I really enjoyed this granita. The citrus helped to balance out the bitterness of the Campari.

This granita is the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day. It's also a great way to use up leftover citrus.

I love that this granita is made with fresh citrus juice. It's so much more flavorful than granitas made with store-bought juice.
