Pineapple, Honey and Green Tea Granita
Light, elegant and refreshing! Pineapple, Honey and Green Tea Granita is delicious. Granita is a frozen fruit dessert made from fresh fruit and water, blended and frozen until icy, flaked with a fork and frozen again. The result is a delightfully crunchy, melt-in-your-mouth fruit ice, perfect eating all on its own for the hot Australian summer.

4 GREEN TEA BAGS

2 CUPS (500ML) BOILING WATER

⅓ CUP (115G) HONEY

METHOD
-
Place the tea bags, boiling water and honey in a medium heatproof bowl and stir to dissolve the honey. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until cooled. Remove and discard the tea bags.

Pour the tea mixture into a blender. Add the pineapple and lime rind and blend until smooth. Pour into a 20cm x 30cm shallow metal tin and place in the freezer for 6 hours or overnight until frozen.

Using a fork, rake the granita and return to the freezer until ready to serve. Serve the granita with lime wedges. Serves 6–8.
