Instructions: Italian Granites or Ices are good and might work for you...

Ices (Granite)

Most refresing on a hot day, granite are made with water and flavorings only. They are admirably suited to being made in the refrigerator, since they do not have to be stirred as often as cream ices to avoid the formation of ice crystals. These crystals are part of a grainta, wich is frozen the same way as ice cubes. The freezing time, though, will be longer, because of the sugar in the granita.

Strain berries through a fien sieve or puree in a blender. Boil sugar and water together for 5 minutes. Cool. Combine with berry puree and stir in lemon juice. Freeze, stirring occasionally.
