I’ve seen a lot of Margarita popsicles these days, but I’m a slow eater and they melt on me. Â And I love granita! Â What is granita? Â It’s sort of a snow-cone like ice cream. Â It’s super easy to make and tastes delicious!! Â So what better way to serve that frozen adult concoction than this….
What you need:
- ¾ cup fresh lime juice (about 6-7 limes)**
- ¼ cup fresh Orange juice (1 large orange)\
- ½ of cup water
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup gold tequila
- Flaked Sea Salt and lime slices for garnish
** I use a citrus reamer to juice the limes and the oranges. Â It gets most of the juice and is pretty easy to use. Â Make sure you pick the seeds out though. Â If the fruit has a lot of seeds, do it over a strainer.
How to Do it:
Process all the ingredients (except garnish) in a blender until everything is well incorporated.
Pour into a glass dish, cover and place in the freezer.
After about 2 hours, fluff the ice up with a fork, cover and refreeze.
2-3 hour later, fluff again.
Freeze at least 6 hour more.
Fluff before serving.
To serve – Place scoops in bowls and sprinkle lightly with the salt. Place a lime slice on top and serve!

Below are some of the items we used to create this recipe!
Can’t wait to try this. I can just see it waiting there for me after I cut the grass! Maybe while I’m cutting the grass, who knows!
Oh, and I stumbled this too!
It’s pretty tasty!! But it does sneak up on you!
I love granita, its so refreshing in the summer as well. I have made it and forgot to stir and it came out a big hard lump. But it was still good, I just threw it in a blender with a little liquid and it was a super thick smoothie!
I’m not a huge fan of tequilla, but I do like the idea of a grown up dessert. Thank you for joining The Really Crafty Link Party this week. Pinned!
