Instructions:

1. In a blender or food processor, puree the grapes until smooth and completely liquefied.
2. Strain the grape puree through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
3. In a small saucepan, combine the strained grape juice, sugar, and lemon juice. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
4. Pour the grape mixture into a shallow baking dish or metal pan and place it in the freezer.

I've heard that adding a splash of lemon juice can enhance the grape flavor and add a hint of brightness to the granita.

That's right!! Lemon juice is a great trick for grape granita. It totally brightens up the flavor and makes the grape taste even more intense

Agree!! Adding a bit of lemon juice can make the grape granita taste even better by giving it a fresh, tangy kick
