Want to add a touch of finesse to your summer barbeques and pool parties? This Sparkling Frozen Lemonade Granita is simple to make and simply elegant to serve at every warm-weather get-together. This frosty little number strikes the perfect balance of sweet with just the right hint of sour, and gets a sparkly finish thanks to the ultimate dog days drink, Lemon Bubbles! So grab your favorite glass.

What You’ll Need:

• 2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 cup sugar (or to taste)
• 2 cups Lemon Bubbles
• Zest of 1 lemon
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

What You’ll Do:

1. Mix It Up: In a bowl, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, sugar, and lemon zest. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. 
2. Add the Fizz: Gently mix in the Lemon Bubbles. This is where the magic happens.
3. Freeze It: Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. Every 30 minutes, use a fork to scrape the mixture, creating those fluffy ice crystals we all crave. Continue this until fully frozen and fluffed (about 3-4 hours).
4. Serve It Up: Once your granita is ready, scoop it into bowls or glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if you’re feeling fancy. Then dig in!
