Yield 2 1/2 to 3 cups granita

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup water
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups brewed coffee, cooled
1/4 cup coffee liqueur (recommended: Tia Maria)

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the water with the sugar. Stir to blend. Bring to a simmer over low heat, then transfer to a bowl to cool. Refrigerate.
