Affogato
Affogato means “drowned” in Italian and is a unique dessert or coffee beverage that combines the contrast between the bitterness of hot espresso and the rich sweetness of gelato or vanilla ice cream.
Hot espresso is poured directly over a scoop of cold ice cream, creating a delightful fusion. The melted ice cream blends with the coffee to create an attractive drink or dessert. Affogato is highly popular in Italy and has been gaining global recognition, with many creative variations incorporating different ice cream flavors and toppings.
