Directions:
- Mix water, 1 cup of the wine and the sugar in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil.
- Add pears, lower the heat to simmer and cook the pears gently, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly in cooking liquid.
- Drain the pears, reserving the cooking liquid.
- Puree the pears in a food processor until smooth (you should have 1 cup of pear puree).
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the cooking liquid, the remaining wine and the limoncello to the bowl; mix well.
- Pour into a shallow metal pan that will fit into the freezer and freeze.
- Gently stir the granita every 20 minutes or until frozen to allow the mixture to freeze without separating and give the proper crystalline texture.
- Once the granita is frozen, scrape the mixture with a spoon or ice-cream scoop into a pretty glass and serve immediately.
- Garnish with lemon zest or a sprig of mint.
