Steps:
- Place the water, sugar, lemon juice and zest, if using, in a small pan. Warm over a medium heat until it at most reaches a simmer (don't boil), stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool. You can speed this up after a few minutes by placing the mixture in the fridge.
- Once cool, strain the mixture if you prefer not to have the zest in there, and pour into in a wide, shallow container such as a loaf pan. Place the container in the freezer.
- Take it out at roughly 30 minute intervals. When you take it out, use a fork to break up the ice crystals, pulling them in from the edge of the container. Once broken up evenly, re-freeze and repeat after another 30 minutes.
- Once the mixture is close to completely frozen, fluff it up one last time then scoop into glasses to serve.

This untried recipe is from the May 28, 2006 edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and posted for Zaar World Tour II.

MEYER LEMON GRANITA
Peggy Knickerbocker is a San Francisco-based cookbook author. Here's her recipe for a simple, but incredibly refreshing, lemon granita. This classic Sicilian dessert only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and 2-3 hours to freeze. You will need to be around as the granita freezes, as it has to be stirred every half hour or so. Eureka and regular lemons can be used as well, but taste the granita for tartness-you may need to add more sweetener. If you cannot find superfine sugar or agave syrup, place granulated sugar in the bowl of a food processor and pule for 30 seconds until pulverized. This is the perfect anti-nausea treat! -- from the book: Feed the Belly.

Steps:
- Place the zest, water, mint springs, and agave or sugar in a small, heavy saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir for about one minute.
- Remove from the heat, and allow the syrup to cool slightly in the refrigerator.
- When chilled, strain out the lemon zest and the mint sprigs.
- Stir the lemon juice into the chilled syrup. Taste to make sure the mixture is not too tart; if it is, add a little more sugar.
- Pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch shallow baking dish (metal, ceramic, or glass), so the mixture is about an inch deep.
- Place in the freezer.
- Every 30 minutes stir with a fork, scraping the crystals down from the side of the dish.
- When the granita is slightly slushy, but definitely frozen hard, with small firm granules of ice, it's done. It will take 2-3 hours to get to this stage.
- The granita may be transferred to an airtight container and stored for a couple hours before serving.
- Remove the granita from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving, so it softens slightly.
- Serve in dessert bowls or glasses.

- To make the jelly, line a 20x30 cm dish with clingfilm and set aside. Soak the gelatine sheets in a large bowl of cold water.
- Heat the tonic water in a medium saucepan until warm, then squeeze out the gelatine sheets and add to the tonic, one at a time, stirring until dissolved. Pour the gin into the saucepan and mix well, then remove from the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- When the jelly mixture is cool, pour into the prepared dish and chill in the fridge until set. This can be made in the morning ready for the evening, but I suggest letting the jelly set at least 24 hours.
- To make the granita, first put a glass baking dish (Pyrex etc) in the freezer to chill. Place the sugar, lemon zest and water in a medium saucepan. Heat gently, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice. If you like the granita extra tart, add up to 1 tsp citric acid, but remember it will be less sweet when it freezes.

- In a large glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the lemon juice and Grand Marnier. Strain the rosemary syrup into the lemon juice and stir to combine. Chill in the refrigerator or, to hasten the process, pour the lemon mixture into a stainless-steel bowl, set it in a larger bowl filled with ice, and stir until cold.
- Pour the chilled lemon mixture into two 9-by-9-inch stainless-steel pans. Freeze for 15 minutes. Stir well and return the pans to the freezer. Continue freezing, stirring every 15 minutes, until the granita is completely frozen, about 1 hour in all. When ready to serve, scoop the granita into chilled bowls or stemmed glasses.
