This recipe is a waste of time. The granita was not good at all.

I found this granita to be too icy. I think it would be better if it was blended until it was smooth.

This granita is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be great with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

This granita is the perfect way to use up leftover rhubarb. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their fruit.

I'm not a big fan of rhubarb, but this granita was surprisingly good. The strawberries really balance out the tartness of the rhubarb.
