THE TYPICAL SICILIAN BREAKFAST
“Caffè e cornetto? No! Brioche e granita!”
In Sicily, the “granita” is an integral part of breakfast.
The summer version par excellence for Sicilians is this inseparable combination!
It is not just a tradition or a habit, but a real institution!
Let me just say the following: in Messina, the coffee granita served in a classic glass and accompanied by a hot brioche is now considered a municipal brand named De.Co.
This typical Sicilian cold sweet treat is a legacy of the Arab rule.
