500g of caster sugar
250ml of water

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks. Slowly pour the syrup into the egg whites while still beating and allow to cool down and stiffen
Freeze the mixture but remove from the freezer every 20 minutes and whisk until you get a granita consistency
