Instructions

Bring the water up to a boil and cool it to 175°F. Pour it into a heat-safe jar.
Add in the granulated sugar and ceremonial matcha.
Give the matcha and sugar a whisk until it dissolves evenly into the water.
Pour the matcha mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container.
Place the container into the freezer.
Freeze for 2 hours, and then give the matcha mixture a stir and scrape with a fork. (This produces ice crystals and gives the granita a light texture).
Every 30 minutes to 1 hour, scrape the mixture until completely frozen.
Fluff the granita with a fork before adding to a chilled serving vessel. Serve immediately.
