Lime and ginger are both ingredients that are often used in Southeast Asian cuisine. Lime juice is used to add a sour and tangy flavor to dishes, while ginger is used to add a spicy and pungent flavor. I created this recipe for Tangy Lime and Ginger Granita as a way to combine the flavors of these two ingredients in a refreshing and delicious frozen dessert. The idea for this recipe came to me one hot summer day when I was looking for a way to cool down. I had some fresh limes and ginger on hand, so I decided to experiment with making a granita. I combined the lime juice, ginger, honey, and water in a blender and blended until smooth. Then, I poured the mixture into a baking dish and froze it for several hours. When the granita was frozen, I scraped it with a fork and served it in glasses. The granita was a hit with my family and friends, and I have been making it ever since. It is a refreshing and flavorful dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
