RED WINE GRANITA
If you've got a couple of cups of red wine left over, why not transform it into something delicious and different, like my granita? Enhanced with a mixed berry simple syrup, this fruity dessert is oh-so refreshing and great to keep in the freezer when you have a hankering for something sweet.

Steps:
- Combine the frozen berries, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Puree in a food processor and strain through a fine wire-mesh strainer, pressing the fruit with a wooden spoon to release the juices. Let cool. (Or place over an ice water bath to cool quickly.)
- Combine the syrup with the wine in a bowl. Pour into a 9-inch square metal pan. Freeze, scraping the mixture occasionally with a fork to create ice crystals, until firm, 4 to 6 hours. Spoon the granita into serving glasses and garnish with mint and fresh berries.
MELON SOUP AND RED WINE GRANITA
This distinctive recipe, brought to us by chef Raymond Blanc, owner of Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons in Oxfordshire, England, offers an elegant and delicious way to put fresh cantaloupe to good use.Look for a cantaloupe with the least amount of green on its net-patterned shell. When you compare two melons, the juicier one will be heavier and its seeds will rattle audibly when the melon is shaken. In preparing the granita, Raymond uses fructose rather than sugar; the flavor is identical, but fructose contains about half the calories.

Steps:
- Peel melon, and finely chop the skin. Slice the melon in half, removing seeds and filament. Place skin, seeds, and filament into a saucepan. Add 2 cups water and fructose or sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, skimming the foam off the surface, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Cut the melon flesh into thin slices, and place in a large bowl; set aside. Pour seed mixture through a sieve lined with cheesecloth placed over the melon slices, and set aside to cool. When cool, add lime juice and mint. Spoon red-wine granita over the top, and serve immediately.

CREAMY MELON GRANITA
Icy melon milk granita is an easy make-ahead treat for a hot summer day. (No need to scrape our sherbet-like mixture every 30 minutes, as with most granitas -- just rake it once at the end for the right consistency.)

Steps:
- Tip the sugar and 125ml/4fl oz water into a saucepan. Scrape in the vanilla seeds and put in the pod as well, then heat gently until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and boil for 6-8 minutes to make a sugar syrup. Leave to cool and remove the vanilla pod.
- Halve the melons, scoop out and discard the seeds, then scoop the flesh onto a board and chop to a slush with a sharp knife (or you can do this in a food processor). Mix the sugar syrup and melon slush together with the lemon juice in a large shallow baking dish. Freeze uncovered for about 1 hour until crystals form around the edges. With a fork, stir the edges into the centre and mash well, then return to the freezer until crystals form again. Stir and refreeze as often as you can (say every half an hour or so) until the granita is frozen all over - this should take about 3 hours. Fork it up roughly when you serve it.
