As I am sitting here eating some lackluster cantaloupe, I am reminded to share my Cantaloupe Granita recipe, which is a super easy way to make something cooling and delicious from fruit that may have decent flavor but lacks sweetness.There are lots of granita recipes out there, and many are much more involved, but I adapted this super simple and easy recipe from epicurious because it's easily modified to add any additional flavorings (such as mint or freshly cracked black pepper), and it's easily doubled in case you want more servings or would like to use the granita as a base for the most delicious cocktails. Actually, you can modify it to use all kinds of yummy fruit - strawberries, peaches, and plums, for example.As coarse as the crystals look in this pic, underneath, you end up with a superfine and flavorful slush that makes for an elegant and refreshing warm weather dessert or palate cleanser.Sometimes I eat through half of mine and then give it a light shot of tequila or rum, and that is also lovely. :)

A granita is a traditional flavored Italian ice. Super simple to make and super refreshing to eat!! If you don’t like grapefruit, you should try using orange or mango. That’s super good too! Although.... mango is chalky. You should try another citrus instead.

I wanted to share this little drink recipe b/c I love to make this with my lil guy. He can help make it easily n we have fun! N you cant even tell that crystal light is in it which makes something so good even better B-)

For all the iced coffee lovers!

This matcha ice cream has an amazingly strong flavor of matcha. It is very creamy and is much cheaper to make at home than to buy at the store. This recipe is so simple because it only has three ingredients and you do not need an ice cream machine.

I bought some matcha, and decided to add it to my coffee.If you pour all the hot water in at once, the matcha powder won't dissolve properly. Adjust the amount of sugar to taste.Although I usually take my coffee black, this tastes best with a bit of sugar. Recipe by Hawaiantomato

A quick fix for your matcha drink craving. Tastes exactly like what you get from that famous coffee shop in the comfort of your home.

This recipe worked great with kinako (soy flour) and sakura. For my third mochi chocolate recipe, I used matcha powder.Yon only need a small amount of anko. It could also be omitted or replaced with amanatto (candied beans). Recipe by Makunouchi

It's boiling hot outside! So I created a chilled dessert that'll cool me from within.If you mix the dry ingredients all together, the mochi balls will become stiff, so add water to adjust the texture. If you plan to shape the mochi balls into characters, it's best if the dough is slightly on the softer side. Shape the dough on a sheet of parchment paper, then drop it into a pot of boiling water.

Eating raw eggs isn't recommended here in Canada, so I made a tiramisu without eggs. I also arranged it in a way so I can use up all the Canadian-sized mascarpone cheese and heavy cream sold here. In addition, I made it into my favorite flavor: matcha. I omitted the alcohol for my family.For the ingredients for the sponge cake layer, I recommend ladyfingers, since they bring out a nice texture when they absorb the liquid, and the sugar coating goes well with the strong matcha flavor. When making the matcha liquid, use a whisk to prevent it from becoming lumpy. Recipe by aquariusmoon

I like what they serve at that famous place in Kyoto, and I wanted to make it myself. I guess that's my story.Well, it's not really a hint but I haven't been able to remove this from the container like other jello. So if you have hints, I want to know. Recipe by Yumy mam
