- 2 19-ounce (540 mL) tins pitted lychees
- 3 tablespoons vodka, optional
- Lime juice, to taste
- 2 kiwi fruits, peeled and sliced, optional
- 4 to 6 strawberries
HOW TO PREPARE
- In blender or food processor,
blend lychee and juice until liquified.
- Add vodka and mix well.
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding lime juice.
- Pour mixture into shallow glass or
plastic pan, cover and place in freezer.
Check after about 2 hours. When mixture
is beginning to freeze, stir with
fork so it doesn't freeze solid.
Stir periodically until mixture freezes
into consistency of sorbet.
If using an ice-cream machine, follow
manufacturer's instructions for sorbet.
- About 1/2 hour before serving, remove
lychee granita from freezer and allow
to soften slightly in refrigerator
or cool place.
Mix well and serve in parfait bowls
garnished with kiwi and strawberry slices.
