This easy-to-make dessert recipe for elderflower, cucumber and gin granita makes a great grown-up sweet course for a dinner party.
Or try our bellini granita, made with peaches and prosecco.
Ingredients
- 1 large cucumber, cut into quarters
- 150ml elderflower cordial (see tip)
- 100ml gin
- 500g ice cubes
Method
- Freeze the cucumber pieces for about 4 hours until solid. Put in a powerful food processor or blender with the rest of the ingredients and whizz until you have a crushed granita-style ice. Serve immediately in bowls straight from the freezer.

I love this recipe because it’s fun hunting through hedgerows for the elderflowers, and the end results are delicious. Plus it’s so easy.
