Watermelon Mint And Lime Glace Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 small watermelon - rind removed, cubed and seeded

1 lime - zest and juice

6 Mint leaves

Pinch of salt

*Chambord (raspberry liqueur) - optional

Lime slices and mint sprigs for garnish

Directions

In a blender, process the watermelon, zest, lime juice, salt and mint to a find purée.

Pour in a shallow dish and freeze.

Check on it after 30 minutes and break up the slush with a fork to ensure a nice, flaky granité. *If you over freeze it, simply chip away with a fork.

Spoon into a martini glass (or any interesting glass), hang lime slice off the rim and top with mint sprig.

Serve between courses as a pallet cleanser or add a 1/3 shot of Chambord to make either a dessert or a non-traditional Trou Normand before the dessert course.
