Ingredients

Switch to Cup Measures
  • 300 ml water
  • 100 ml pisang ambon liqueur (a tropical fruit, banana and herb liqueur)
  • 150 grams caster sugar (superfine or granulated sugar may be substituted)
  • ½ lime (or lemon, juice only)

Method

  1. In a saucepan bring the water and the sugar together to a boil and let it cook softly (simmer) for 5 minutes. 
  2. Remove from heat and mix the liqueur and the juice of a half lemon (or lime) through it and set it completely in a cold-water-bath. 
  3. When the mixture is sufficiently cooled down, place it in a puddle sign box (container for freezing) and place in the freezer. Let granita set in freezer for 4 hours. 
  4. Each half hour remove the granita from the freezer and mix well with a fork, to prevent ice crystals. 
  5. After 4 hours in the freezer, the granita is ready. Keep the granita in the freezer until ready to serve. Source: Ronny Henri Szostek
