5 cups ripe honeydew melon, diced
1 cup unsweetened apple juice
1/4 cup lime juice
Put all the ingredients in the blender and puree until smooth.
Pour into a 9x13 inch glass or metal baking dish and put in your freezer.
Process the granita by stirring with a fork every 30 minutes, making sure the frozen parts around the edges of the pan are smashed with the fork and stirred into the softer center part.
You'll do this about 7 or 8 times, depending on your freezer.
After about 3 or 4 hours, you should have a firm but not solid texture.
Take the baking dish out of the freezer and use a sturdy metal spatula to shave the granita into slivers and fill a plastic container that has an airtight seal.
Put container in freezer and let freeze for at least 1 more hour, undisturbed this time.
To serve, remove from freezer about 15 minutes before attempting to scoop.
