A granité is a coarse-grained, half-frozen ice served as a refreshment in party menus. Erken figures 1 liter of finished sorbet or punch for 10 people.
Prepare the fruit
Peel the fruit, remove all cores and cut it neatly into small cubes.
Mix
Add the champagne to the lemon ice, and mix in the fresh fruit and the finely chopped ice.
Serve
Serve at once in shallow glass bowls or glasses; the mixture should be half-frozen and no thicker than that it can be drunk.
The measures are converted to modern units, and the OCR error "4 l." is interpreted as 1/4 l crushed ice. The method has been broken into steps.

Note on Modernised
Målene er omregnet til moderne enheter, og OCR-feilen «4 l.» er tolket som 1/4 l knust is. Fremgangsmåten er delt i trinn.
