This granita can be made adult or kid friendly by using white wine or white grape juice. Found in an Italian Cooking cookbook with a few adaptations. Cooking time is freezing time.
Ingredients:
2 cups pineapple-orange juice (or 1 cup pineapple juice and 1 cup oj)
3/4 cup ginger ale
1/4 cup white wine or 1/4 cup white grape juice
2 teaspoons sugar
orange section, to garnish
mint sprig, to garnish
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a heavy-duty quart size resealable plastic bag. Seal tightly and store flat in freezer until firm.
2. Fifteen minutes before serving, remove from freezer to soften slightly.
3. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound to crush ice mixture. Spoon into wine goblets or dessert dishes and serve garnished with orange segments and mint sprigs.
