3 Ingredient Passion Fruit Granita In Just Minutes
If you have never tried passion fruit granita or Italian ice, it’s time to change that. No worries, because you can easily make it at home. Once you try it, you will want to have it over and over again, especially on a hot summer day!
There is nothing as refreshing as ice cream, sorbets and granita (similar to Italian ice), especially during the summer. Popsicles or paletas are also a crowd favorite. Italian ice or Sicilian granitas are so easy to prepare and this passion fruit recipe will delight everybody in your family. It’s the perfect frozen treat for those who have a lactose intolerance or are sensitive to gluten.
How do you make granita
Making granita is quite simple but the entire process of scraping the flavored ice will require around two hours. This treat is made with just two or three ingredients. Citrus flavors such as tangerine, orange or lemon, are particularly refreshing and this passion fruit granita is delicious because of its natural acidity.
Since passion fruit is not always available, I make this granita with passion fruit concentrate that you can buy at the grocery store, wholesale stores, and Hispanic stores. You can also try adapting the recipe using other tropical fruits such as guava and coconut.
