Strawberry-mint granita

Step 1

Peel the strawberries from their stalks, combine with the mint and beat with a blender until smooth. Strain the puree through a sieve.

Step 2

Prepare the syrup. Combine the sugar and warm water and stir with a whisk until the sugar is dissolved.

Step 3

Then pour the syrup into the strawberry-mint puree, add lemon juice and stir until homogeneous. Pour the resulting mixture into a convenient mold or container and place in the freezer for 40-50 minutes.

Step 4

After the time has passed, loosen the granita with a fork and return it to the freezer again. Repeat this procedure every 40-50 minutes until the granita is completely frozen.

Step 5

Serve with fresh strawberries and mint, if desired. Enjoy.
