Ingredients

  • watermelon
  • honey
  • limes

Instructions

  • Cut watermelon into large chunks.
    A hand holds a thick slice of watermelon on a wooden cutting board while a knife cuts through it; another half of watermelon is visible in the background.
  • Place watermelon on a baking sheet and freeze overnight or until the watermelon is complelty frozen.
    Six rectangular pieces of watermelon, some with visible frost, are arranged on a metal baking sheet. The tray sits on a wooden surface with part of a green lime visible in the background.
  • Using a grater, grate watermelon into a large bowl. We found that using a box grater on the coarse side worked best.

  • Place shaved watermelon in smaller bowls and top with honey and a squeeze of lime.
    A hand drizzles honey from a squeeze bottle onto a bowl of watermelon granita, with a lime, metal grater, and watermelon chunks in the background on a tray. A spoon rests on a striped cloth nearby.
