Joseph and Peter joined by friend Netty and Joseph's cousins Fiorella and Nucchio for a Granita in a little Village of Sicily called Zafferana.
But how do you eat a real Sicilian granita nowadays?
If preparing a granita is an art form, eating it must respect the care with which it was created.
Let’s clarify something: the granita is not supposed to be drunk; it should be eaten. Second point: the adjective “Sicilian” should not be used with the word “granita,” as the granita is Sicilian. Unfortunately, however, in Italy, there are thousands of ice-cream parlors serving granitas, but generally, they have nothing to do with the original one and are more similar to the Roman grattachecca.
The area of Messina is particularly renowned for its granitas, but in general, the whole Sicily with variations for each territory offers high-quality granitas. They are always accompanied by the “brioscia co ‘tuppu,” that is the brioche with a bun (it’s called like this because of its shape that reminds chignon hairstyle). In some areas of the region, it is still possible to eat the oldest “pesciolino,” a tender flour bread with an elongated shape and sesame, instead of brioche.
The consistency of Sicilian granita is similar to that of sorbet but compared to it is even more creamy. Therefore it must not have big ice crystals inside.
The classic flavors are chocolate, almond, lemon, black mulberry, coffee and - in eastern Sicily - jasmine and cinnamon.
Inevitable is the cream. Sicilians love to dip the bun, maybe still hot, in the cream, and continue to eat brioche and granita in parallel.
Even the glass, in fact, is thought to soak bread/brioche/butter biscuits and is similar to those once used for water.
Granita and brioche represent the breakfast par excellence of Sicilians, and a people that can afford to start the day like this is a chosen people.

Thank you very much and I hope you have a wonderful day too 🤠🤗🙏🏽👍🏽

You got that right Ms Kayak, Peter certainly has a sweet tooth. No Starbucks in Sicily that I know of 🤣 Glad you enjoyed the video, have a wonderful week. 🙏🏼👍🏼🤠♥️
Thanks for sharing more of your adventures with us 👍🥰 Looks like you where all having fun here 🤪 Hope your all doing well & having a lovely weekend ❤xx
Thanks for watching. Paul All is going well here in the land of Down Under. Have a great week. 🤠🙏🏼👍🏼♥️
Looks very tasty my friends, Italians are the best when it comes in ice cream making!
We agree! Delicious. 🤠👍🏼🙏🏼♥️
I don’t even have a passport jojo, I’m travelling through your videos 😂,
To be honest I’m Macedonian from north Macedonia. I came here in 1975 , I’ve never been back, no intention to ever go back, I was old enough to remember the hardships, it will be like reliving my nightmare to go back, not saying that about all of Europe but once bitten twice shy, cannot wait until I’m retired, fingers crossed 🤞 I’m still alive and healthy enough to see this wonderful country right here 😂
I would think that things have progressed since you were there in 1975 Jim. There is so much to explore in Europe. Hopefully once you retire you will get that opportunity to see some wonderful things in Europe. Those Granitas are worth going back to Sicily. Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend. 👍🏼🙏🏼🤠♥️
Food looks delicious! Incredible footage, you guys have not aged at all ❤❤
You might need to get a little closer 😆 Thank you Jill and Nicholas. 🙏🏼👍🏼🤠♥
Great video and great filming!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍🏼🙏🏼🤠🍧
Looks like all of you were having a great time. It has been over ten years since my last visit to Sicily.
I passed through close to Zafferana but did not have time to stop. Great video brings back good memories of Sicily for me. Have a wonderful week.
WOW! Wonderful to hear that you were in Sicily Gasper. Peter and I will have to return one day. Have a great week. 👍🏼🤠🙏🏼♥️
You guys have gone to some of the prettiest places. I liked the song you picked. Is this from the archive? You and your travel group seems like a fun bunch.

I am dreaming of a Granita right now, especially on this hot day. 🤗
I wanted to watch this real quick to stay up to date then quickly realized this is not current but oh My I loved it so much!! Jo Jo that Mustache is Fantastico!! Bring it back just at least for a little while loved it! Oh my your hair Peter it was like a vidal sasson (?) Commercial . That ice cream looked incredible it was so difficult to watch. I have had no sugar no breads no alcohol for a month! Oh my goodness! I loved the music to this video and loved seeing the clips of you both!! Such handsome men!!
You loved my Handle Bars. It was part of my Cowboy Look when we used to go Boot-scooting (Line dancing) and Two Stepping.
Peter has a great head of hair, must be those good Irish genes his mother gave him.
That Granita is the best, when in Sicily, do as the Sicilians do. 🍧
Awww you say the sweetest things Jodie, I am sorry you guys are so far away. Who knows, one day we may cross paths.
Have a great week and thank you for your support.

Does look delicious Jojo, and all fully enjoying the occasion too, great memories, ... I didn't know about the Granita, thanks and cheers, Steve :)
It's so good! I had one every day. My favourite Granitas were the Almond Granita, The Peach Granita or The Pistachio Granita. The Coffee and Lemon are very good too. It will be a long time before I get back to Sicily again. Thank you for watching. Have a great week. 🙏🏼👍🏼🤠♥️
Thanks Jojo, .... was in Messina with Tracy in 2017 but missed out on the Granita, didn't know :(
@@StevesWeekender what a shame Steve. Hope you are well.
well done, thumbs up 👍🍀💯
Thank you 👍🙏🏼🤠♥️
I think I must go to Sicily just for the granita and gelato. That is all. Although the Sicilian donuts aren't too bad either. 😂
Most excellent soundtrack too.
Totally agree Shane.
Glad you enjoyed the soundtrack too. Have a great week.
