- Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and place in the refrigerator until cold, about 1 hour.
- Using the finest grater you have, lightly scrape the skin of 1 lemon, removing only the top surface of the peel. Squeeze out the juice and remove the seeds from both lemons.
- Open the Champagne or sparkling wine, and pour it into a 9 by 12 by 2-inch pan. Mix in the simple syrup, lemon juice, and grated zest. Place mixture into the freezer. Check after 30 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, break up any ice formed on the sides and stir into the rest of the liquid. Continue to freeze and repeat this procedure every hour for at least 3 hours. Before serving, fluff the granita by "chopping" up any clumps with the spoon or gently whisking the frozen mixture. Spoon into small glasses or cups and serve.

Estimated Reading Time 2 mins
- Chop Up Watermelon. Chop up watermelon into reasonably sliced chunks, removing the ride and the seeds (if there are any, as there was with mine) as you go, until you have 2 pounds (around 4 cups).
- Blender Watermelon and Sugar. Place chopped up watermelon in a blender or food processor, and add half a cup of granulated sugar. Blend together, for about a minute.
- Add Champagne. Slowly (to maximize liquid and minimize bubbles) measure a cup of champagne and add it to the watermelon-sugar. Mix together, for the champagne likes to separate out from the sugar and the watermelon.
- Freeze. Pop lid onto container and place in the freezer, preferably under ice cream that you already own, for added deliciousness. Remove from freezer every 30 minutes and stir and scrape with a fork, for about two hours.
- Serve! When the granita has reached the proper icy texture, serve in multi-coloured bowls for added prettiness and enjoy! Be sure not to devour it all in one go.
