This granita was a bit icy for my taste. I think next time I'll let it soften for a bit before serving.

This granita was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think next time I'll use less sugar or maybe add a bit of lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.

This granita was a bit too icy for my taste, even after letting it soften for a bit. I think next time I'll try using less sugar or maybe adding a bit of lemon juice to brighten up the flavor.
