What is Italian Ice?
History and Origins
Italian ice, also known as granita, is a frozen dessert that originated in Sicily, Italy. It is made by freezing a mixture of water, sugar, and various flavorings, such as fruit juices or syrups. The mixture is then scraped and stirred while freezing, resulting in a smooth and slushy texture. Italian ice has been enjoyed in Italy for centuries, but it wasn't until the 19th century that it made its way to the United States, specifically to New York City, where it became a popular summertime treat.What Makes Italian Ice Different?
Unlike other frozen desserts, such as ice cream or sorbet, Italian ice is made without any dairy, making it a perfect option for those who are lactose intolerant or vegan. It also has a lighter texture, making it a refreshing alternative to heavier desserts. Italian ice is also known for its bold and intense flavors, making it a perfect base for adding a splash of alcohol.The Perfect Italian Ice Alcoholic Drink Recipe
