Sorbet
A semi-frozen water ice, usually made with fruit, sugar syrup or a liqueur, traditionally served as a palate cleanser between courses but now eaten more commonly as a refreshing dessert.
Granita is a slightly coarser, crunchier Italian style of sorbet that doesn't require an ice-cream maker.
