Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Cranberry Mixture
In a saucepan, combine the fresh cranberries, water, and granulated sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat and let it simmer until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens, about 10-15 minutes.
- 2
Strain the Mixture
Remove the saucepan from heat. Strain the cranberry mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding the solids. Stir in the fresh orange juice and mint leaves.

Freeze the Granité
Pour the strained mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. After about 30 minutes, stir the mixture with a fork to break up any ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours, or until the granité is fluffy and has a snow-like texture.
