How to Make Green Tea Granita
- Steep 4 green tea bags in 2 cups of freshly boiled water for 5 minutes. Remove tea bags and let the tea cool completely.
- Stir in 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the zest of 1 lime, and the juice of 1 lime until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow 9x9 inch metal baking pan. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
- Remove the frozen granita from the freezer 10-15 minutes before processing. Using a fork, break the frozen mixture into smaller pieces.
- Transfer the broken-up granita to a food processor or blender. Pulse for 10-20 seconds, or until the mixture is finely shaved and icy, but not completely smooth. Avoid over-processing.
- Scoop the granita into bowls and serve immediately. Garnish with extra lime zest (optional).
