Lemon Granita Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of fresh lemon juice
• 1 cup of water
• 1/2 cup of sugar
• Zest of 2 lemons

Directions:

1. In a small saucepan, combine water and sugar. Heat on medium heat, swirling occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool.

6. Serve in small glasses or bowls.
