- Finely zest 1 blood orange, avoiding the bitter white pith that would spoil the granita.
- Put the water, sugar, zest and cinnamon stick in the saucepan and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer gently for 3 minutes, then cover and let steep off the heat for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, juice all the blood oranges to get about 700 ml (3 cups) of deep red juice.
- Strain the infused syrup through a fine-mesh strainer and mix it with the strained orange juice in a clean container.
- Pour into the dish (a 2 cm / ¾ in layer), press plastic wrap onto the surface and freeze for 4 hours.
- Scrape with a fork every hour to get bright blood-red crystals.
