Ultra Coffee Coconut Granita Recipe

Serves 5–6

Ingredients

For the granita: 

2 cups coconut water
2 tablespoons Peet’s Ultra Coffee
2 tablespoons maple syrup 

For the coconut cream: 

1 can full fat coconut milk 
1/2 cup sugar

 Directions

  1. For the granita: stir together the coconut water, Ultra, and maple syrup until well combined. Pour into a ceramic or glass 8x8 baking dish. 
  2. Freeze, stirring every 30-45 minutes for 4 hours, allowing crystals to form. Depending on the size of your baking dish it may take more or less time. 
  3. For the coconut cream: stir together the coconut milk and sugar in a small/medium pot over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and move to low heat for 10-15 or until the cream is thickened to your desired consistency. Let sit to cool and store extra in the fridge for up to 7 days. 
  4. To serve: scoop about half a cup of granita into a serving bowl and drizzle with cooled coconut cream.
