Sometimes, you need a cool refreshing dessert. This Strawberry Granita fits the bill. Not only can it be made by hand, but it is a fuss-free no-bake dessert. Eating this strawberry granita would be like eating a coarse yet flaky bowl of strawberry-flavored snow. Instead of using refined granulated sugar, we opted to use a sugar-free sweetener making this granita a diabetic recipe. Nevertheless, you can use granulated sugar if you want to. Either way, this strawberry granita will be refreshingly sweet and loaded with fresh strawberry flavor.

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups Water
3/4 cup Swerve Sugar-free Granular Sweetener Sugar
1 1/2 pounds Strawberries, washed, tops removed, cut in half
Juice of 2 Lemons
1/4 cup Mint

Instructions

Place the water and sugar-free sweetener into a medium saucepot. Place it over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil.

Remove the simple sugar-free syrup from the heat and let it cool completely.

Place the strawberries into a high-speed blender. Blend into a purée.

Add the simple syrup to the blender and blend for 15-30 seconds until combined.

Pour the strawberry granita into a freezer-safe glass container that has a lid.

Cover the strawberry granita and freeze it for 1 hour. Next, scrape the strawberry granita with a fork to break up any ice crystals that formed on the surface of the granita.

Divide the strawberry granita between 8 short glasses and top with fresh mint.
