1 1/2 cups Cranberries (fresh or frozen)
2 Cups water
3/4 cup sugar
Zest of 1 Lime
Alton Brown's Cranberry Granita is great on it's own as a tasty treat, and makes the base for a cosmo with ingredients good for kidney health.


Directions


Heat cranberries water and sugar in pot. Once water is boiling and cranberries start to pop turn off heat and blend with immersion blender. Pour through a strainer into a metal sheet pan. Add lime zest and stir to blend throughout hot liquid. Put sheet pan in freezer and freeze. Pull pan out and scrape ice out with a metal fork and serve.

For Cosmo combine granita in glass with shot of vodka and juice of half lime. Vary amounts to taste.
