Dissolve the sugar in the water. Peel the mango and dice the flesh. Add it to the sugar solution and puree thoroughly with a hand blender. Season with lemon juice and rum to taste. Pour into a shallow, sealable container and freeze thoroughly. After two to three hours, as soon as the first ice crystals form, stir with a fork every 30 minutes to prevent the mixture from becoming a solid block. Thaw in the refrigerator for half an hour before serving, then shave off shavings from the granita with a spoon and serve in ice-cold glasses.
