Steps:
- Purée all ingredients with 1 1/4 cups water in a blender until smooth. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a 9x9x2" metal baking pan; strain, discarding solids. Freeze mixture for 1 hour. Stir, mashing any frozen parts with the back of a fork. Cover and freeze mixture until firm, about 2 hours. Using a fork, scrape granita vigorously to form icy flakes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover tightly with foil and keep frozen. Give it a quick scrape before serving.
ALMOND-MILK GRANITA (GRANITA DI MANDORLE)
At Caffè Sicilia, this granita is served for breakfast along with a brioche and a shot of espresso-a wonderful way to start the day. Unlike most other granitas, it has an almost creamy texture. (The Caffè Sicilia almond paste, though pricey, is worth it: Incredibly moist and possessing a delicate floral quality, it tastes so pure that we actually eat it by the spoonful.)

Steps:
- Blend together almond paste, sugar, and 1 1/2 cups water in a blender until smooth, foamy, and white. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into an 8-inch square baking pan, reserving any solids in sieve. Add remaining 1/2 cup water to solids in sieve and whisk over baking pan until most of water passes through (do not press on solids).
- Stir mixture, then freeze, stirring and crushing lumps with a fork every 30 minutes, until firm but not frozen hard, 2 to 3 hours. Scrape with a fork to lighten texture, crushing any lumps.

Steps:
- In a saucepan combine 4 cups of water, the almond paste and milk. As it heats, use the back of a spoon or a potato masher to crush and dissolve the paste. When the mixture begins to steam -- before it boils -- take it off the heat. Let cool slightly, then carefully whiz with an immersion blender until the paste is fully incorporated. Pour into a cheesecloth-lined sieve set over a bowl. Let drain completely, without pressing the solids.
- When cool, add a pinch of cinnamon. Pour into a shallow baking pan, and freeze. Check after about 30 minutes; when it begins to get icy, use the back of a large spoon to press down on the mixture and break it into pieces. Repeat several times over the next 2 hours, until the granita is fully frozen but broken into shards. To serve, place 1 1/2 tablespoons crushed amaretti cookies in the bottom of a glass, followed by a serving of granita, and top with 2 more tablespoons crushed cookies.
