Fresh, tasty and naturally icy, sometimes a dessert, sometimes an afternoon snack or why not, even a full lunch paired with a soft brioche: yes, we’re talking about granita, the Sicilian treat you simply can’t say no to on a sweltering summer day.
Somewhere between ice cream and sorbet, granita is a one of a kind dish. Born in Sicily, it has since spread across Italy, from Bologna to Salerno, Milan to Rome and beyond , but no matter where you find it, nothing will ever quite match the authenticity of the Sicilian original.
