- For the granita , add the freezer tomato cubes to a blender and blend. Stir with the spatula and repeat
- For the pesto sauce , add the chopped garlic, chopped basil, oil and salt to the blender. Blend until you have a slightly grainy sauce. Serve the granita in a bowl, decorate with the Mozzarella pearls and some fresh basil leaves and dress with the pesto sauce.
