The cucumber granita is in the chromatic range evoked by Moët Impérial. It highlights a fresh, light vegetal base.
The green apple and lemon foam echo Moët Impérial Brut's straightforward fruitiness and acidity.
The crunchy texture of the granita and its icy freshness provide the contrasting element for a stimulating tasting of Moët Impérial Brut.
The cold, crunchy sensation of the granita is unexpected, while the aromatic elements mirror the Champagne’s profile.
RECIPE
Chop fresh cucumber and apples into small cubes and blend until smooth. Strain with a sieve to remove solids. Pour into container and freeze for 6 hours. Once frozen, use a fork to scrape into a crushed ice texture.
Put the granita into a glass. Combine 50ml fresh lemon juice with 1 egg white and 1½ tsp sugar and use a hand mixer to whip into a stiff foamy texture. Spoon on top of cucumber and apple granita and serve immediately.
