Answer 2

COFFEE GRANITA

1 c. sugar
1 c. water
2 1/4 c. very strong black coffee

Combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to boil and continue boiling 5 minutes. Cool, add coffee, place in refrigerator tray and freeze until mushy. Stir and freeze again 3 to 4 hours, beating once or twice. Serves 4.

To make a deluxe coffee granita, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of Kahlua and top each serving with whipped cream.

Fresh fruits and berries are particularly appealing for granitas and sorbets although frozen berries can be substituted. However, now that fresh strawberries are available, use them for the ultimate sorbet.

Answer 3

For the coffee granita take extra strong brewed coffee or espresso and sweeten it to your liking while it's hot, Pour into a shallow baking pan and put into freezer. Every 30 minutes or so take a fork and break up the ice crystals that have formed. Do this until all the liquid is a nice fluffy ice. Let sit in freezer for another 30 to 60 minutes to get nice and cold. Serve in glasses with a dollop of whipped cream

Answer 4

I love granitas I have made a lime and a peach one just recently

Granita is an easy and tasty treat for the summertime that doesn't require any special equipment. It can be made with virtually any sweet liquid - juice, diluted italian soda syrup, soft drinks, etc.

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Let cool. Stir in the fruit juice and lemon juice and pour into a chilled 13- by 9-inch metal baking dish. Place in the freezer and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes until the mixture is firm.
