First made in the country of its name, Italian ice is a refreshing non-dairy dessert made from water and fruit extracts, syrups or puree. Easy to make at home, Italian ice requires no special appliances, but must be broken up or scraped every few hours until it reaches the desired icy consistency. Since it takes several hours to freeze, plan in advance if you'd like to serve it to guests.
