- 2 Teaspoon(s) McCormick® Crushed Red Pepper
- 1 Teaspoon(s) McCormick Gourmet™ Ancho Chile Pepper
- 1 Teaspoon(s) Sea salt from McCormick® Sea Salt Grinder

Directions
1. For the Chamoy Sauce, place all ingredients in blender container; cover. Blend on medium speed until smooth. Store in covered container in refrigerator up to 5 days. (Makes enough Chamoy Sauce for 2 batches of Watermelon Granita.)
2. For the Chamoy Watermelon Granita, place all ingredients in blender container; cover. Blend on high until very smooth.
3. Pour mixture into large freezer-safe container (about 13×9-inch size). Cover with plastic wrap. Freeze 3 to 4 hours, stirring and scraping mixture with a fork every 30 to 45 minutes to create a fluffy, shaved ice texture.
4. To serve, scoop or shave frozen mixture into serving bowls. Garnish with watermelon wedges sprinkled with additional chili powder, if desired.
