Blackberry-Rosé Granita

1. 1

   ["With a muddler or the handle of a wooden spoon, smash the blackberries in a mug or jar.", "Pour them into a strainer over a bowl or measuring cup and pour the rose over the blackberries.", "Discard the blackberry pulp or reserve for another use. Add lemon juice and simple syrup and stir.", "Pour into a freezer-safe container and freeze. Every 2-3 hours, take it out and mush it up with a fork, ensuring slushy, soft crystals. If you forget about it, you'll just have to work a lot harder to scrape it up at serving time, but it will nevertheless be delicious.", "Right before serving, scoop into pretty glass dishes and garnish with mint or basil, if you like.
