SICILIAN GRANITA
"If you have never been to Sicily, you have never had granita. Granita is Italian ice, but it is nothing like the Italian ice you find here in America. They are completely different, from the taste to the consistency. Some of my fondest memories of my visits to Sicily are of sitting in the café in the morning and having a Granita di Limone and brioche for breakfast. That?s right I said for breakfast. In the summer in Sicily, granita and gelato are breakfast foods. That’s what I call paradise!
