Melon, Watermelon and Mint Granita

It’s summer time, we want fresh, cool, good with little time in the kitchen and, please, no baking.

I have the dessert you’re looking for: my melon, watermelon and mint granita.

5 minutes of preparation (believe me. I’m telling no lies!!), 2 hours in the freezer and you will have a super delicious frozen dessert with a subtle taste of mint.

Cherry on the cake: it is super light and doesn’t cost much!!

So as it is very simple and quick to make, I won’t say more!

The recipe, Chef!
