Yield Makes about 9 cups, serving 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
3 cups 1/2-inch chunks fresh pineapple (about 1), peeled and cored
4 cups chilled passion-fruit nectar or juice
3/4 cup chilled Champagne

Steps:

  • In a saucepan bring sugar and water to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and cool syrup.
  • In a blender or food processor purée pineapple with 1/4 cup plus
  • 2 tablespoons syrup (reserving remaining syrup for another use). Stir in nectar or juice and Champagne. Pineapple mixture may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
  • Transfer pineapple mixture to a shallow metal baking pan and freeze, stirring and crushing lumps with a fork every hour, until mixture is firm but not frozen hard, about 3 to 4 hours. Granita may be made 2 days ahead and frozen, covered. Just before serving, scrape granita with a fork to lighten texture.
  • Scoop granita into serving bowls.

I'm not a big fan of tropical fruits, but I really enjoyed this granita. The champagne flavor really balances out the sweetness of the fruit.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of champagne, but I'm so glad I did! The granita is not too sweet and the champagne flavor is very subtle. It's the perfect balance of flavors.
