Print Recipe Espresso-Frangelico Granita
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 1¼ cups freshly ground espresso coffee
  • 6 cups water
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ¼ cup Frangelico (Italian hazelnut liqueur)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • In an electric drip coffeemaker (or equipment of your choice), brew the coffee with the 6 cups water. There should be about 5½ cups strong, dark coffee. Stir the sugar, Frangelico and lemon juice into the coffee and cool to room temperature. Transfer to a covered container and freeze until solid (due to the alcohol in the Frangelico, this may take up to 12 hours.
  • To serve, scrape the granita with a large metal spoon. Scrape as much as you’d like to serve, then save the rest until ready to use. Serve immediately.
