Here's how to prepare a Matcha Granita:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of water
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 2 tsp of Junbi Daily Ceremonial Matcha
• optional: vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Whisk together 2 tsp of Junbi Daily Ceremonial Matcha with 1/2 cup of water, then add your remaining 1.5 cups of water.
2. Add your matcha, sugar, and a splash of vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
3. Pour your mixture into a food storage container and put in the freezer. 
4. After an hour, take the granita out and mix it.
5. Every 30-45 minutes, take your mixture out and rake through with a fork until you have an icy texture similar to shave ice. 
6. For a soft, fluffy texture, blend the mixture in a blender and then pour back into your food storage container and refreeze.
7. Rake through again, then your granita is ready to enjoy! Matcha Granita can be topped with condensed milk, fruit, or enjoyed on it's own.
