Ingredients:

• 1 ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, and roughly chopped
• 1/3 cup (80g) sugar
• 1 cup (250ml) Gut Feelings Tea (brewed)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

 Instructions:

1. In a small pan, combine sugar and tea. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow it to cool.
2. In a blender, combine the cooled tea and sugar mix, pineapple chunks, and lemon juice. Puree until smooth.
3. Pour the mixture into a shallow container and place it in the freezer for 1 hour.
4. After 1 hour, use a fork to scrape the ice from the edges of the mixture and stir it into the middle. Return the container to the freezer.
5. Repeat the process of scraping and stirring every hour for about 3-4 hours, until the granita reaches a fluffy, ice-crystal texture.
6. Keep the granita frozen until ready to serve. When serving, garnish with a sprinkle of crushed chilli and sea salt for an extra burst of flavour.
