Summer Treat: Simple Sangria Granita

A simple and classy way to eat your wine this summer. We consulted the expertise of James Spica of New Confectioner in Hudson Valley, NY who has been making wine sorbet and even an IPA beer sorbet that caught our attention. What makes these frozen treats so awesome is the lack of fat and the fact that they are not overly-sweet. Feel free to adjust. For instance, we put sweet coconut shavings on top of ours.
