Refreshing and delicious! Have fun substituting other citrus or fruit juices to create your own concoction! Sometimes I make an alcoholic version by substituting 1/4 of the water with 1/4 cup of my homemade Limoncello. I also like to serve Lemon Granita in a flute and top it off with some Centanni Passerina.
