I’ve said this before and I really mean it…I love champagne! I have been playing around with champagne recipes all week and I can’t wait to share some of them with you! I’ve wanted to try a champagne granita for a long time but all the recipes I know of required making a simple syrup. Out of sheer laziness I decided to skip that step and what I came up with was a really yummy Sparkling Champagne Granita Honey recipe. I have no idea what a traditional granita tastes like but I am loving this version!

What is the difference between sorbet and granita?

That’s the same question I asked myself when I was pondering what to do with this lovely little bottle of champagne. Sorbet is a frozen dessert that typically has some kind of pureed fruit mixed in. Unlike ice cream, sorbet does not have any milk and is not air whipped but instead is stirred. For those who are lactose intolerant sorbets are perfect because they are dairy free.

Granitas are a favorite Italian treat and are made with virtually any kind of liquid. You can use ingredients like juice, soda, coffee, tea, wine, or champagne. Granitas are kind of like a slushie and if you make them using alcohol, a really yummy adult slushie.

Sparkling Champagne Granita with Honey Recipe

Yield: 2 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 55 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 2 cups champagne
  • 2 tbsp honey, depending on how sweet you want it
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Pour champagne into freezer safe bowl or dish.
  2. Pour honey and water and whisk for about 45 seconds or until honey seems dissolved.
  3. Place in freezer and after about 30 minutes take out and scrape down the sides. It will be a bit slushy. Mix gently and place back in freezer.
  4. At this point you could mix it every 30 minutes like many granita recipes call for but I left mine in the freezer overnight and broke it up the next morning. Your mixture should look kind of like a slushie.
  5. Serve immediately or place back in freezer until your ready to serve.
