Ingredients

- 1 can 19 oz (540 ml) lychees in syrup
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) lime juice

Preparation

- In a blender, purée the lychees with the syrup and lime juice until smooth. Strain into a square 20-cm (8-inch) glass dish.
- Cover and freeze for 6 hours or until the granita is completely frozen. With a fork, scrape the surface of the granita to break into fine crystals. Serve immediately in dessert cups.

Note from Ricardo

To transform the granita into slush, spoon 250 ml (1 cup) of granita in a glass and add 30 ml (2 tablespoons) of lemon-lime soda (7up or Sprite). Add a few drops of vodka, if desired.
