How to Prepare Rhubarb Granitas [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Boil water in a pot. Peel the rhubarb, cut it into pieces, and add it to the water.
Add the zest and lemon juice and a few hibiscus petals. Add the birch sugar to taste. Remove from heat and let cool.
Strain the sauce through a fine sieve, squeezing all the juice through, and remove the pulp.
Pour the rhubarb syrup into a bag and freeze it.
Once frozen break the juice into pieces place these into a blender and mix it until you have the consistency of frozen snow.
Place this into a container and store it in the freezer.
