Steps:
- Pour the coffee into a jug and stir in the sugar until it has dissolved. Add the coffee liqueur and leave to cool completely.
- Once cold, pour the mixture into a freezable container and put in the freezer for 1 hr. Mix it with a fork - you should start to see ice crystals forming at the edges. Return to the freezer for 20 mins then stir again. Repeat once or twice more until the granita is all clumps of ice.
- Serve in glasses or bowls as an elegant dessert. For a more indulgent version, add a dollop of mascarpone and a grating of dark chocolate.

COFFEE GRANITA
I think Jeremy Vincent's recipe's are just wonderful, and this one does not disappoint. Everyone just loved this cooling desert on a very hot summers evening. Use coffee that you would love to drink. Because this recipe is so simple, that will be your main flavour: I am posting as written with Jeremy's suggested variations from the "Weekly Times" -- This recipe uses strong espresso coffee as the flavouring ingredient and water to dissolve the sugar. You can make your granita even stronger by substituting more coffee for the water component. The vanilla can be swapped for nearly any flavouring you like with coffee. Try using a tablespoon of Kahlua, orange zest, or even cocoa powder. The chocolate will give your ice a cloudier colour, but the flavour is great.

Steps:
- Method: Heat the sugar and a cup of water in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Dissolve the sugar, stir in the coffee; cool. (The cooler the liquid is before the freezing process begins, the quicker the granita will form its ice crystals). Pour the chilled liquid into a 20cm-square baking dish; freeze. Stir the mixture every 20-30 minutes as crystals form. (See Basic Tips below). Spoon into glasses. Top with whipped cream and chocolate-covered coffee beans, if using.
- GRAPEFRUIT AND CAMPARI GRANITA.
- Blend 2 cups of freshly squeezed Ruby Red grapefruit juice, half a cup of Campari, half a cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla paste. Pour into a baking dish, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the freezer. Using the tines of a fork, stir the mixture every 30 minutes, scraping edges and breaking up any ice chunks as the mixture freezes, until granita is slushy and frozen, about 3 hours. Scoop into chilled serving glasses.
- GRANITA BASIC STEPS
- Heat up the water and sugar until the sugar has completely dissolved. This will make a syrup for your base that will give you a great finished texture. If the recipe calls for caster sugar, you may just be able to stir it into hot tap water to dissolve. If you are looking to get even more creative, try infusing your simple syrup with other flavours that will complement your granita recipe.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add any other ingredients that your granita recipe calls for. Refrigerate the liquid until it is completely cold.
- Pour the granita liquid into a shallow baking dish and place in the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes. At this point, ice will just begin to form around the edge of the dish.
- Use a fork to scrape the ice back into the centre of the dish. Make sure to get all the ice off the bottom of the dish as well. Return the granita to the freezer.
- Continue to scrape the dish every 20 minutes or so. Use the prongs of the fork to scrape any ice off the dish and the side of the fork to break up any larger chunks that have formed.
- Continue scraping the granita off the sides of the pan until it is completely frozen and has the consistency of coarse sand or shaved ice. Return the pan to the freezer, uncovered, for 20 to 30 minutes. You want the granita to be dry on the surface and lose any slushiness in texture before it is served.

COFFEE GRANITA (WITH SWEETENED WHIPPED CREAM)
Steps:
- Combine the coffee, sugar, coffee liqueur, and vanilla and stir until the sugar dissolves. Pour the mixture in a flat pan that's about 9 by 13-inches. Place the pan in the freezer for one hour, until it starts to become slushy around the edges. Rake the mixture with a large fork to break up the crystals and place it back into the freezer. Every 30 minutes, rake the mixture until it is completely frozen and granular throughout. Freeze until ready to serve.
- Spoon the granite into pretty stemmed glasses and top with a dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately.
- Place the cream, sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium and then high speed until the cream just forms stiff peak.

GRANITA DI CAFFE CON PANNA (ITALIAN COFFEE GRANITA)
You are sure to see people enjoying coffee granita if you visit Sicily during the summer months. Here's the recipe so you can make it at home. It's very easy to do but requires a lot of freezing so best to prepare in advance. It's usually served with whipped cream both at the bottom and on top of the glass, alongside a sweet brioche roll. You can store in the freezer for a few days, just make sure to stir well before serving.
