Grapefruit Campari Granita

Campari adds a bitter note to sweet Ruby Red grapefruit juice in this refreshing granita. We like to enjoy this peach-hued treat as a pre-dinner aperitif.

  • Serves

    serves 4-6

Ingredients

  • 2 cups freshly squeezed Ruby Red grapefruit juice
  • 12 cup Campari
  • 12 cup sugar
  • 12 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, seeds scraped and reserved
