Buck’s fizz granita
Buck’s fizz, a delicious cocktail made with equal parts of orange juice and champagne or sparkling white wine, becomes a gorgeous granita when made with blood orange juice and frozen. If you want, try diluting the granita with seltzer, champagne, or even sparkling cider for parties and special occasions.

Frosty summer pudding
Summer pudding is a traditional English dish in which all the wonderful summer berries and currants are packed into a bread casing that absorbs all their sweet juices and turns deep red. This is a frozen, very low-calorie variation.
Ricotta ice with roasted figs
If you feel low-fat ricotta is too high-fat for you, try using virtually fat-free fromage frais instead (try a specialty gourmet shop; it’s not readily available).
