WATERMELON SORBET OR GRANITA
This works only if your watermelon is juicy and sweet. If you make the granita version, you can use less sugar and omit the corn syrup because the ice crystals won't matter.

Steps:
- Place all of the ingredients in a blender, and blend until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight.
- If you are making granita, place a 9-by-11-inch baking dish in the freezer. Omit the corn syrup and reduce the sugar if desired.
- Place a container in the freezer. Using an immersion blender, blend the watermelon mixture for 30 seconds. If making sorbet, freeze in an ice cream maker following the manufacturer's directions. If making granita, scrape into the chilled baking dish and place back in the freezer. Set the timer for 30 minutes. Using a fork, scrape the ice crystals from the outside of the baking dish toward the center. Return to the freezer and set the timer for another 30 minutes. Continue to scrape the mixture with a fork every 30 minutes until you have a uniform frozen mixture. It should not be frozen solid. If you forget to scrape and the mixture does freeze like an ice cube, cut into chunks and use a food processor fitted with the steel blade to break it up. Transfer to a container and freeze. Allow to soften for 15 minutes in the refrigerator before serving.

Steps:
- Make the granita: Puree the unevenly cut watermelon, honey, half the lime zest and juice from 1 of the limes in a blender on low speed until smooth. Pour into a 9-by-11-inch or 9-by-13-inch baking dish and freeze until it hardens completely, 3 to 4 hours.
- Whip the cream: Fit a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, then whip the cream in the mixer on medium speed until it holds fairly stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Get ready: Arrange the watermelon cubes in a single layer on a clean work surface and add a tiny sprinkle of the sea salt and some sugar and the remaining lime zest and juice.
- Assemble: Arrange a few cubes of watermelon in the bottom of each serving glass or dish. Put a tablespoon of sorbet on top of the watermelon. Spoon a generous tablespoon whipped cream over the sorbet. Use the tines of a fork to scrape some of the granita off the surface. Sprinkle a generous tablespoon of the granita over the cream. Repeat the same order of layers 1 to 2 more times. Serve immediately.
WATERMELON GRANITA
The granita is a cross between sorbet and Italian ice, and there's a cool trick to get the right icy texture. My version is made with watermelon and a little vodka for a perfect adults-only frozen treat.

Steps:
- Slice, peel, and cube 6 cups of watermelon. Combine coarsely chopped watermelon, sugar, and lime juice in a bowl and let stand until macerated and juicy, 25 minutes.
- Process in a blender until just smooth, then pass through a China cap using the back of a ladle. Transfer to a shallow metal tray and remove the foam on top. Freeze, stirring and scraping occasionally with a fork until crystals form and granita is frozen (2-4 hours). Every 20-30 minutes, scrape a fork through the mixture to create the crystals.
- To serve, divide finely diced watermelon among chilled serving glasses and top with granita. Drizzle with vodka (optional) and serve immediately.
