Watermelon Granita and Red Fruits Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 cups chopped seedless watermelon
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 cup mixed red berries (such as strawberries, raspberries, and/or cherries)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions:

1. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
2. Blend the watermelon in a blender until smooth.
3. Strain the watermelon puree through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl. Discard any solids left in the strainer.
