Granitas was born from two things: a love for traditional Italian water ice — and a disappointment with what it's become in the states. U.S. versions are defined by artificial ingredients, concentrated syrup bases and candy-themed flavors. This is the fast food equivalent of water ice and not the way it should be. So we decided to make it the right with simple ingredients and nothing fake.

​

But we didn't stop there.

​

We expanded the menu to include flavors beyond classics including tropical and nut-based. We also accompany the ice with fresh whipped cream and a brioche bun. It's a nod to old-world Sicilian tradition, and hopefully a welcomed change for American taste buds.

​

We're not reinventing water ice — we're making it the way it was meant to be.
