Mild detergent, sponge, warm water, do small areas at a time, wipe dry with a microfiber cloth. Alcohol works too but your kitchen will smell like an operating room for a while.

Vinigar and water in a spray bottle then get any of the granite sealers available and to this frequently.

I use the water and vinegar method as well, then I wipe over it with a cloth and it seems to work well. Stephen B's microfiber cloth tip is great too.

It is best to use a neutral cleaner on anything granite – stone soap and water will do the trick jut fine. Or stick to warm water and mild dishwashing liquid. Avoid using acidic compounds that can discolor. For stains, I have read, "combine together about one to two tablespoons of dishwashing liquid, one cup of flour, and just enough water until the solution becomes thick (about the same consistency as paste). Simply put this solution right over the stain. Cover the area with a plastic wrap. Leave it overnight. You can then scrape the mixture away gently, preferably using a wooden utensil. Rinse. The stain should be gone."
