  • Sugar15 g

In season: June – August

Method

  1. Make the espresso and, while still hot, stir in the sugar until dissolved; add about two thirds of its volume in cold water.
  2. Pour the mixture into a shallow metal or plastic container and put it in the freezer.
  3. Every 30 minutes, for about 3 hours, scrape the mixture with a fork, pulling the crystals from the edges towards the centre, until it is granular and even.
  4. Shortly before serving, whip the well-chilled cream with a whisk until it holds soft peaks, and serve it on top of the granita.
