Got this from a local Forum:

Those of you who like it hot should try this. The habanero
gives it a deceptively attractive peachy color. 

Habanero granita 

2 cups water 
1/2 cup sugar 
juice of 1 lemon 
habanero purée* to taste 

Dissolve sugar in water and lemon juice, heating if neccessary. Add a small
amount of habanero puree,  chill, and freeze until firm. Turn out on a cutting
board, chop fine, and serve in small portions to lovers of hot stuff. 

*Habanero purée 

Remove core and seeds from habanero peppers and cut into pieces. Put in a
saucepan with a few tablespoons of water, simmer until quite soft. Puree in the
blender or food processor and put through a sieve to remove skins. Store what
won't be used in a few days in the freezer.
