Strawberry Granita with Beaujolais

4.6

(7)

This simple dessert is completed in the freezer—no ice cream maker required. Feel free to use your favorite red wine in this recipe, but keep in mind that a lighter-style wine (like Beaujolais) will really let the strawberries shine. If you choose a deeper red, such as Merlot or Zinfandel, the strawberry flavor will be less pronounced.

Ingredient tip:

When shopping for strawberries, use your nose. Choose berries with a sweet, fragrant scent. A deep red color doesn’t always equate to flavorful, juicy berries, but do avoid any with wilted leaves or white or green areas around the stem.
