6 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
3/4 cup granulated sugar
Juice from one Meyer lemon
One shot of tequila per serving
Place the watermelon cubes, sugar and lemon juice in a blender. Purée until smooth.
Pour the mixture into a large casserole dish (or any flat container). Freeze the mixture for 1 hour. Run a fork across the surface of the mixture to break up any large frozen parts. Repeat the process every hour until frozen. It will take 3-4 hours to freeze.
Prior to serving let the granita soften just a bit on the counter. Drag the fork through the granita to create ice flakes.
To serve, spoon the granita into individual bowls or glasses and pour a shot of tequila over the top.
Garnish with a few mint leaves.
