Strawberry Aperol Spritz Granita
Instructions
1
|
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and Aperol. Bring it to a simmer and cook it for 4-5 minutes (you want to cook off a bit of the alcohol so it will actually freeze). Cool the mixture to room temperature.
2
|
Puree the strawberries with the Aperol syrup in a blender or food processor until smooth. Strain to remove the pulp and seeds. (If desired. This step is not totally necessary, but the pulp and seeds will lead to a less-smooth texture).
3
|
Gently whisk the strawberry-Aperol mixture with the lemon juice, orange juice, and Prosecco. Pour the mixture into a metal or glass baking pan.
4
|
Freeze for 2 hours, and then scrape the mixture with a fork. Scrape the mixture every hour for another 3-4 hours, or until the mixture resembles shaved ice. Cover with wrap until ready to serve. You can serve the granita with whipped cream and fruit, but I prefer it plain. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Aperol Spritz Flavor Balance 🍹Use a 3:2:1 ratio of Prosecco, Aperol, and soda water to capture the authentic Italian spritz flavor profile in your granita.
- Granita Texture Mastery 🧊Scrape the freezing mixture every 30 minutes with a fork to create light, delicate ice crystals instead of a solid block of ice.
- Fresh Strawberry Selection 🍓Choose ripe, deep red strawberries at peak season for maximum natural sweetness and vibrant color in your granita.
- Straining Technique 🥄Use a fine-mesh strainer to remove strawberry seeds for a smoother, more refined granita texture.
- Chilling Presentation 🍧Serve in chilled glasses and garnish with a fresh strawberry slice and a small Aperol-soaked orange peel for an elevated presentation.
