This week, I made coffee granita, which is a semi-frozen Italian dessert. They were so beautiful and had gorgeous crystalline texture. :) I made two different coffee granita. The left one was made of strong coffee brewed with a French press, and the right one was made of espresso brewed with a stovetop espresso pot. Both tasted great but had different tastes actually. Obviously, coffee granita made of espresso had intense coffee taste. :) I'm going to share two ways to make coffee granita with you.
