Green tea is great hot but it’s even better frozen. On a hot day, this simple granita is just what’s needed to keep spirits and antioxidants up. And it’s so easy to make. Time... to eat your tea.
Steep the green tea bags in hot water for 10 minutes. Discard bags.
Stir in the sugar and pour the mixture into a 9 by 9 inch baking pan. Cover and put into the freezer.
After 1 hour, using a fork, scrape the frozen top layer. Scrape and break frozen blocks into pieces. Continue to scrape every 15 to 20 minutes until the granita has a fluffy, snowy consistency – about 2 hours. Eat immediately or keep for 3 days, scraping every so often.
Chef Tips
For the best results, use plain green tea, without any additional flavorings. Add sugar to taste, but go easy on it.
