    Sorbets + Granitas, w/7 recipes

    A frosted dish of sorbet or granita is a burst of Arctic
    air on a hot summer's day. Delicate, light and icy with
    fruity flavors of green apple, raspberry, mango and
    watermelon.

    1 - Tropical Fruit Granita
    Here's an elegant granita that's a cross between a cocktail and dessert. A
    chrysanthemum-colored, crystalline ball that shimmers in your dish - an
    exotic nectar of freshly-squeezed passion fruit and orange juices, tropical
    pineapple, champagne and white rum. Frozen then scooped into a dessert dish,
    garnished with mint.

    2 - Green Apple & Candied Ginger Sorbet
    Garnished with thin slices of apple and sprigs of mint, this pretty, pale
    green sorbet is made with tart green apples, apple juice and fresh lime
    juice, giving it a sweet-tart flavor. Added in is candied ginger which gives
    it an elegant zing.

    3 - Pina Colada Sorbet
    This creamy, coconutty sorbet can also be served as a granita. Instead of
    processing it in an ice cream maker, chill it in the freezer until it
    hardens into an icy consistency. Either way it's served, this tropical
    dessert, made with coconut milk, pineapple juice and dark rum, will be a
    pleasant ending to your summer evening meal.

    4 - Raspberry-Chambord Sorbet
    A burst of color and flavor, these deep crimson scoops start out as a warm
    sugar syrup and whole fresh raspberries. The fruit is pureed then combined
    with the syrup along with lemon juice, freshly squeezed. To intensify the
    already natural fruit flavor, Chambord is added to the mix before freezing.
    Placed in our Krups Ice Cream and Sorbet Maker, it's processed until frozen.

    5 - Watermelon Granita in Lime Cups
    Our mini melons will delight kids as well as adults with their refreshing,
    shaved ice texture, served inside carved-out lime cups, dotted with
    currants. Once the watermelon mixture has set, scrape with a spoon and mound
    inside the lime cups. Serve on a bed of crushed ice!

    6 - Mango Sorbet
    These fruity scoops resemble bright balloons, a profusion of summertime
    color. Superfine sugar and lemon juice are combined with chopped mango and
    simmered until the fruit fully infuses the liquid. Pureed in a food
    processor, the mixture is frozen until the desired consistency. For added
    color in your dish, serve with our Strawberry Sorbet, made with fresh
    strawberries in place of the mango.

    7 - Lemon-Rosemary Sorbet
    Both tangy and herbal, this sorbet is the perfect dessert served on those
    sweltering summer evenings. Finely chopped fresh rosemary, lemon juice and
    vodka add a flurry of flavor to the frosty white scoops
