The slivers of ice do indeed melt quickly away once inside the mouth. Although I would have added more tequila to satisfy my personal preference, the overall sweetness and flavors of the Cointreau and orange and lime juices made for a very refreshing drink. I served the granita in martini glasses with a couple sprinkles of mint chiffonade.

Lime and orange juice mixed with tequila, Cointreau, and sugar. I love making granitas. They're so refreshing. If you don't like tequila, you may not go for this. I, however, sat on my balcony on a 96-degree day with this treat and felt very happy. [Terri Rimmer] This cocktail couldn’t be simpler. Lime and orange juice mixed with tequila, Cointreau, and sugar.

As stated, the granita could either be a cocktail or a dessert. I served it as suggested, as a dessert in a tall glass with sweetened whipped cream, and it was a light and refreshing end to the meal. I would definitely make this again—we had no leftovers. [Sandy Hill] What a hit for the summer season! As stated, the granita could either be a cocktail or a dessert.
