Today I wanted to share a delicious summer treat that doesn’t require an ice cream maker. A Granita is similar to sorbet, except you scrape the mixture every so often so that the ice crystals are larger in size. This produces a lighter frozen treat, almost like a slushie. I was lucky enough to receive an ice cream maker for my birthday last year, but I almost always forget to put the bowl in the freezer in time for it to freeze solid. Luckily, this is easy to make with no special equipment. My favorite flavor combination this summer is strawberry and lime, but you could use your favorite fruit combinations.
