Green Tea Granita (Italian Cafe Style)

teas.co.uk · 15 min plus freezing · Serves 4

You'll need

• 3 tea bags of True English Tea Everyday Green Tea
• 400ml just off boil water cooled to about 80C (boil, then rest the kettle for roughly 90 seconds)
• 60g caster sugar
• Juice of half a lemon

Method

1. Rest the boiled kettle for about 90 seconds, then steep three bags in 400ml of roughly 80C water for 4 minutes. Lift the bags out without squeezing.
2. Stir the sugar into the hot tea until dissolved, then add the lemon juice. Cool completely.
3. Pour into a shallow freezer tub and freeze. After about an hour, scrape through with a fork, then repeat every 30 to 40 minutes for 3 to 4 hours until you have light, icy flakes.
4. Fork through once more and spoon into glasses.
5. Scrape more often near the end for finer flakes, or less for a chunkier, slushier texture.
