If you don't have a freezer, you can still make a delicious granita by hand freezing (similar to sorbet but with larger ice crystals). For granita, pour the mixture into an ice cream container, place it in the freezer, and stir every 20 minutes, breaking up the freezing crystals with a fork until fully frozen.
