FOOD LA LA RECIPE: EASTER BUNNY GRAPEFRUIT GRANITA
INGREDIENTS:
2 ½ cups grapefruit juice
1 cup sugar
1 bottle dry champagne or Prosecco
¼ tsp salt
Optional: ½ cup white chocolate, pink food coloring
STEPS:
In a small pan, combine, sugar, grapefruit juice, and salt. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Whisk until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Pour juice and sugar mixture into a baking pan (that can fit in your freezer!) and add the champagne. Stir to combine.
Freeze for 1 hour, then scrape with a fork. Continue to freeze, then scrape every 30 minutes (for about 3 hours, until it’s fluffy!)
Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt white chocolate and divide in half. Put a few drops of pink food coloring in one And leave the other white. Transfer each to a piping bag or plastic bag. Pipe bunny ear shapes, then tap on the counter to smooth. As soon as it dries (5-10 minutes), repeat process with the pink chocolate to make the inner ear. Tap pan down and let sit to dry.
Scoop granita into a small glass bowl or champagne coup, and top with two white chocolate bunny ears! Serve immediately!
