    go to the chocolate strawberry pudding pops on the first page and pick the strawberry cranberry granita recipe from that recipe page.  I goes right there.

    I agree.  The link doesn’t work.  You can get the recipe on google, but it would be nice if this link would work.  Would make it easier.
