FRESH LEMONADE
Go on, find a porch swing.

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until the ice chunks are gone (and pretty much melt). Serve over ice. Makes one and a half quarts.
[VERLEST]�S
GRANITA
It's fancy and oh so good.
2 cups sugar
4 cups water
2 cups watermelon puree
1. Simmer the water and sugar in a saucepan for five minutes. Add the watermelon puree and cool.
2. Place in a shallow metal baking pan in the freezer for 20 minutes. Remove and stir from the outer edges and return to the freezer. Repeat this step every fifteen minutes until the consistency is icy and grainy.
3. I like this with some fresh mint leaves and a little dash of champagne.
