By á-174942

Ingredients

• 2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
• 1/4 cup vodka
• 6 fresh cranberries for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

Whisk the cranberry juice and sugar in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat just until the sugar dissolves. Pour the cranberry mixture into a 13- by 9- by 2-inch glass baking dish. Cool completely. Whisk in the lime juice and vodka.

Freeze until the granita becomes slushy, about 2 hours. Using fork, stir to blend. Continue freezing the granita until frozen, stirring every hour to form crystals, at least 5 hours or overnight.

Divide the granita among 6 dessert glasses. Garnish with fresh cranberries, if desired, and serve.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
