Watermelon Mojito Granita Recipe

This retro granita dessert recipe reads like a dispatch from the old-school days of recipes scrawled on 3x5 note cards, combining watermelon, white rum, and mint jelly, plus a generous dose of lime juice. The use of mint jelly is ingenious, as it helps the granita have a silky—not gritty—texture. The alcohol from the rum will keep the granita from freezing too hard, but it’s worth keeping an eye on the timing between scrapes. Eat by the pool on a hot day with some tunes from the sixties.

How are Slushies Made?

Don’t we all love a slushy – a dense, icy beverage resembling snow's thickness and texture? Remember your childhood days when your mom or dad would buy you a slushy, and despite the many brain freezes you encountered, you were still adamant about finishing it?

For some, a slushy has nostalgic value, and others simply love it because it is just what you need on a hot and tiring day. 

Slushies have been around for a while and are loved by people of all ages, especially in warmer regions. We know it is a summer favorite, and people in Spain and Portugal can’t get enough of it.

Slushies come in different sizes, flavors, and colors and can be customized based on your taste profile. You can also enjoy them at any time of the day, even before, during, or after exercising. 

This blog will discuss how you can make your favorite slushies at home. Now, ideally, there are two ways of making a slushy. The first way is by freezing flavored water till loose and tiny crystals form, and the second way is with the help of flavored syrups, crushed ice, and sugar (which is optional but helps prevent the crystals from turning into a solid block of ice.)

No matter which part of the world you belong to, a slushy will always be a summer favorite because of how refreshing the drink is. Similarly, slushies are a great way to reduce your body temperature during hot days. But did you know that athletes also consume slushies to minimize fatigue and control their body temperatures? If you think about it, slushies are everywhere, consumed by everyone worldwide. 

Should You Buy Slushies or Make them at Home?

This is a good question. If you are a teenager out and about with your friends, it makes sense to go buy slushies from the mall or movie theatre. However, the sugar content may be higher in store-bought slushies, and there may be allergens or gluten present.

 If, however, you want to make them at home when your friends or family come over, then you can whip up something spectacular with flavor syrups from yogurshop and know what exactly goes into your slushies.

 The granitas available from yogurshop are gluten-free and allergen-free. Moreover, no genetic modification or alteration is done to any of the flavors, so you won’t have to worry about breaking out or getting any allergic reaction in general

To make homemade slushies, all you need are the following ingredients;

1. Crushed ice, which is the base of your beverage

 2. Flavouring syrup which you need to cover your crushed ice for flavor

 3. Sugar is optional since some syrups already contain it. Experts suggest having 12 percent sugar in your slushy to prevent it from becoming too solid for consumption.

All you need to do is mix the crushed ice with flavoring syrup or granita and add sugar if required. Once you have combined the ingredients, place the mixed content in a bowl or a glass and garnish as needed. 

Some people like the slushy without garnish, but if you want, you can add a mint leaf for an extra kick, especially on hot summery days. Some people also like to add a slice of fruit on top, but that solely depends on how you like your slushies. 

In terms of flavors, you can find the following syrup flavors from our shop: 

● Granita Cola 

● Iced Coffee 

● Granita Pina Colada 

● Granita Pineapple

● Granita Mojito

● Granita Watermelon 

● Granita Orange 

● Instant Strawberry Granita 

● Granita Lemon 

● Granita Melon 

● Instant Granita Tropical Blue

Jason Atherton has announced plans to re-launch the City Social bar in a bid to attract late night diners and drinkers.

The re-named Social 24 will have a new food and drink offering as well as a resident DJ from 9pm on Thursday and Friday nights.

The new-look bar will launch on 12 April with a cocktail menu curated by group bar manager Jay Doy, which will take inspiration from the London landmarks that can be seen from the restaurant and bar on the 24th floor of Tower 42.

The Shard cocktail (£12) will be made with Barcardi heritage, lime, watermelon, passionfruit, Skekforde rum mixer and Mojito granita; while the Monument (£13) pays homage to commemoration of the Fire of London with Don Julio, fire-roasted pineapple syrup, dragonfruit, jalapeños, charcoal and cinnamon.

Doy said: “We are extremely lucky to work in a place with incredible views across London, and as a result I thought it would make sense for the new drinks at Social 24 to be inspired by the different landmarks that can be seen from the bar. We wanted each drink to be influenced by an icon whether that was the size, the location, the colour, the name or the history as well as bringing a touch of modern elegance and glamour to the City.”

Alongside the new drinks offering executive chef Paul Walsh has created a new menu offering a three-course set lunch priced at £28 including heritage beetroot salad, goats’ cheese and watercress; Cotswolds chicken and Madeira terrine with grilled sourdough and a choice of Vanilla crème brûlée or Valrhona chocolate mousse.

In the evening an à la carte menu will be on offer in the bar, with a selection of small and large dishes, including; Frenchman Creek oysters with dashi, melon and yuzu; Smoked pork empanadas with harissa and red onion compote and Buccleuch Estate beef fillet with duck fat chips accompanied with béarnaise or peppercorn sauce.

Social 24 will be open from midday until 2am, Monday to Friday, and from 4pm on Saturdays.

The Endlessly-Customizable Frozen Dessert that Works for Any Diet or Dinner The Endlessly-Customizable Frozen Dessert that Works for Any Diet or Dinner https://images.food52.com/86ero43fSITDq9dHkfGxjnHHqBE=/fit-in/8000/e2df56b7-32ac-445a-a39b-abf73d637e5aFD_Granita.jpeg Were here to help you throw the most inspired summer dinner parties yet. We partnered with Pure Leaf Tea House Collection to bring you an elegant (but simple!) dessert to serve to your dinner guests. If youre not familiar with granitas its time to get acquainted! The first time I visited a gelateria in Italy I noticed that it also carried a selection of granita (an Italian dessert consisting of frozen ice water and flavoring) which was a far cry from the Italian ice we have in the US (Im from Philly so to me its water ice). I found that granitas are much more than standard Italian ice and the flavors were sophisticatedSicilian lemon and basil almond and espresso chip for example. Granita was the perfect answer to a sweltering day of walking around Rome when all I really wanted was a refreshing icy treat to cool down with. Granita reigns from Sicily but is available all across Italy with different regions favoring distinct freezing techniques to create various levels of texture ranging from coarse to smooth. Luckily you dont have to be in Italy to savor this simple and elegant frozen dessert. No need for an ice cream maker either! All you need is some freezer space a baking dish and a forkthis 3-ingredient recipe allows for creativity to suit all preferences. The base recipe starts with making a simple syrup (equal parts water and sugar) and what you add to it is up to youlet your imagination run free! Put summer fruits to good use like pureed watermelon or blended strawberries or even your drink of choice like iced tea. Iced Tea Granita byAnna May As the granita freezes use a fork to rake the ice. The less often you stir it the larger your chunks will be resembling large crystalline snowflakes. The more you stir the mixture the finer your granita will be like sorbet. And there you have it a light and chic frozen dessert thats sure to be a crowd pleaser all summer long. Iced Tea Granita By Anna May 250 milliliters (roughly 1 cup) freshly brewed tea cooled 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 1/2 ounces caster sugar View Full Recipe Iced tea granita is just a starting point To make any fruit flavor pop: Just add citrus like lime or lemon juice or infuse the simple syrup with aromatics such as basil lavender or lemongrass. Channel your favorite beverages: Make an Arnold Palmerinspired combo by pairing iced tea granita with a scoop of lemon sorbet. Or make a twist on flavored sweet tea by topping an iced tea granita with a scoop of your favorite fruit sherbet. Have fun with toppings: Add fresh fruit or whipped cream on top . For the more adventurous try a drizzle of pomegranate molasses or a good-quality balsamico di Modena. Make it a boozy affair: We like a Negroni in all formsadd gin campari and vermouth to your granita base before freezing. For a spin on a mojito simmer the simple syrup mixture with fresh mint leaves strain and add lime juice and white rum. For a more refined approach: Splash your favorite cordial like elderflower or orange blossom onto the granita before serving. What are the best granita flavors youve made? Tell us in the comments.
