Sounds delicious!

This is best eaten within a few days, but will keep in the freezer for weeks, though it may need a firm hand to break up the crystals.

agree writeaway : you were pipped at the post by Carol. /ok. since you want agree (a neutral isn't a disagree, it's just a comment), then here it is. Better late than never-and I guess that applies to your answer and to my agree.
1 min
I'm quite aware of that, but that's no reason to give a neutral when the answer is correct! Carol's answer wasn't showing when I posted otherwise I would of course simply have agreed!

Peer comment(s):
neutral writeaway : we call it a granita. It's basically an Italian dessert.
3 mins
agree Carol Gullidge : this also works if the register is lower. We used to call them slush puppies. But I think it should really be lime, and that "vert" should have been included in the question//I should add that a slush puppy was a drink rather than a dessert!
4 mins
I agree, a more accurate translation would even be lime and tarragon slush/granita
neutral Sheila Wilson : slush has negative connotations (especially this winter) which preclude its use in formal dining (but it's fine for kids)
