Directions
In a small saucepan, combine honey and 1 1/2 cups water. Heat until honey is completely dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes (do not boil). Remove from heat and cool completely. Add lemon juice and rose water.
Place in an 8" x 8" glass or stainless steel baking dish and freeze until completely frozen, about 3 hours. With the tines of a fork, scrape the granita, creating ice shavings. Return to freezer for another 2 to 4 hours. Scrape again.
Either serve and sprinkle with rose petals, or return to freezer in a covered container. Scrape again when ready to serve.
