Espresso
Gelato
Method
Preparation
Brew the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 1 cup of fresh espresso. Ensure the espresso is hot and freshly made for the best flavor.
Serve the Gelato
In a serving glass or bowl, place 1 scoop of vanilla gelato. Ensure the gelato is slightly softened for easier melting when the espresso is added.
Combine the Two
Once the espresso is brewed, pour it directly over the scoop of gelato. The hot espresso should melt some of the gelato, creating a delicious mix of flavors.
Garnish and Serve
Optional: You can garnish with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for added flavor. Serve immediately while the espresso is hot and the gelato is cold.
