Coffee Granita

Ingredients

• 3 cups prepared strong black coffee
• 0.75 cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur

Steps

1. Have all the ingredients ready.
2. Whisk the coffee, sugar, and coffee liqueur together in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved.
3. Pour into an 8×12- or 9×13-inch dish and freeze uncovered for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until the outer edges just begin to turn slushy.
4. Break up the frozen pieces with a fork and stir them into the liquid. Use the back of the fork to crush any large pieces.
5. Put back in the freezer, repeating this process every 30 minutes until the consistency suits you, about 4 to 5 times total.
6. Serve at once, or return to the freezer to chill for 8 hours or overnight before serving for the best result.
