Visual Guide: Just How Simple Are Affogato and Sparkling Iced Americano to Make?

Affogato is primarily made by pouring espresso over ice cream, where the hot coffee melts the ice cream, creating a rich foam on top. Rather than being considered a coffee beverage, it's actually more of a dessert. So how exactly is an affogato made? Let FrontStreet Coffee demonstrate the specific process for you!

What You'll Need

First, you'll need to prepare ice cream, a wide-mouthed container, a shot of espresso, and a cookie.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1:

Scoop a large spoonful of ice cream into the container. (You can add two more scoops if you'd like - it's all about your preference!)

Step 2:

Extract 38 grams of espresso.

Step 3:

Gently pour the extracted espresso over the ice cream. This helps preserve more coffee crema on the surface of the ice cream.

Step 4:

Place the cookie into the ice cream.

And there you have it - a delicious affogato ready to enjoy!
