Giada De Laurentiis just gave us a saving grace: a simple coffee desert to help us get through those tiring weekdays.
On July 7, Laurentiis posted a video of a coffee-based treat we need right now to her Instagram page @thegiadzy. She posted the quick video with the caption, “We ♥️ a coffee granita! It really is the perfect treat on a warm day – the icy texture of the granita with a strong coffee flavor paired with freshly whipped cream…it’s just wonderful.”

The comment section was all over this, with fans suggesting to add Kahlua if you want booze in your pick-me-up. But Laurentiis recommends either Limoncello or Amaretto to it off if you’re looking to add some liquor (Noted!)
With a prep time of only 10 minutes, this super-easy caffeinated recipe uses ingredients like warm coffee, sugar, Limoncello, and salt, to name a few.
The beginner-friendly recipe can easily serve six people, with everyone indulging in this mouth-watering treat. Laurentiis recommends starting the recipe by stirring all the ingredients in a bowl and within no time, you’re adding a dollop of a topper of your choice to lock in the sumptuous flavor.
