Granita is a semi-frozen dessert made from sugar, water and various flavorings. Granita is an Italian frozen dessert very similar to sorbet, except that it’s made by hand instead of in a machine. Because of this, the texture of granita is coarser and flakier — like eating snow! It’s briefly crunchy at the first spoonful and then melts deliciously in your mouth
