DolceVita Cuisine: Ricette Cool: watermelon granita

Watermelon Granita (Italian icee!)

1 watermelon pulp
1 T rum
2 T sugar
1 T strained lemon juice
Mint leaves to garnish

Remove seeds from watermelon and place in a blender or food processor with the rum, sugar and lemon juice.
Pour the mixture into a preferably metal container and set in the freezer.
When the granita is icy but not solid (think Slurpee!), spoon it into individual containers and garnish with mint leaves and a slice of melon.
