Peaches are in season right now in Texas. Honestly, I'm not in love with the furry fruit, but removing the skin and adding a bunch of sugar makes it quite delicious.
Peach Granita
Ingredients:
4 ripe peaches, peeled and chopped 1/2 c. water 1/4 cup sugar, more if needed 1 T. fresh lemon juice coarse salt 2 t. finely chopped basil (optional)

Puree peaches, water, sugar, lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender; add more sugar to taste. Transfer to an 8-inch-square baking dish. Freeze for 2 1/2 hours, scraping with a fork every hour (mixture should be icy and fluffy). Stir in basil.
