Add two tablespoons chocolate syrup. Puree or pulse the mixture until all the

ice chunks dissolve.

with raspberries. If you're chocolate averse, simply substitute honey, agave

nectar, or sugar for the chocolate syrup. My favorite variations are blueberry

& chocolate, banana & chocolate and pineapple granita.
