Black Mamba Granita

Or slushy snakebite and black, if you prefer.

As booze was the outright winner on the poll, I thought I ought to do a boozy recipe today. I am very pleased with this one, it's smashing in this sunny weather and very simple to make. In fact, it's so idiot-proof I threw it together last night, before bed, while very drunk and it worked perfectly!

330ml lager
330ml scrumpy
4 tbsp Ribena (not sugar-free)

Mix together and freezxe over night, Break up into crystals with a fork. Eat, drink or slurp through a straw.

how much do you have to consume before you start liking Santana? should the scrumpy be clear or unfiltered? would it work with Vimto?

I am hungover in sympathy (though the bottle of cava I drank on my own didn't help). I want a HUGE one of these the second I get home...

I do like the name Black Mamba Granita, where did you come up with that?

How is the head this morning, I must take some responsibility for it, sorry.

James Franco my banging head and queasy tum is 100% your fault. I hope you feel as bad as I do. But thank you for suggesting black mamba.

I didn't force a bottle of wine down your neck, you were hardly kicking and screaming.
I regretted drinking that much Guinness this morning though.

Well, I did have one of these as soon as I got in and it was delicious! And full of live-giving, health-conscious booze! I recommend it highly...

james - I can't argue with that

Bltp - go on and make this, you won't be sorry. Doesn't matter what scrumpy you use, though if it is cloudy your granita won't sparkle quite so much. I think Vimto coridal would be yum!

'Black Mamba Granita' sounds like a lot of Islington spin on the trusty snakebite (and black). Can't wait to try it!
