A granizado is an icy beverage of Spain, Central and South America. It varies regionally. In Colombia it consists of crushed or shaved ice with semi-sweet milk, fruit syrup or chocolate syrup dripped on top. Granizado is also a slushee style beverage invented in central Mexico during the late 1970s as a response to popular American beverages such as Icee and Slurpee and the UK's Slush Puppie.[citation needed] In Colombian cuisine, granizados can be ordered with or without milk, and among various real fruit flavors blackberry is a popular choice.
