Gelato

Espresso

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Gelato

Scoop 2 cups of vanilla gelato into serving bowls or glasses. Make sure the gelato is slightly softened for easier scooping.

2

Brew the Espresso

Brew 2 shots of fresh espresso using your preferred brewing method. This can be done using an espresso machine, a stovetop Moka pot, or an Aeropress.

3

Assemble the Affogato

Immediately pour the hot espresso over the scoops of vanilla gelato. The heat from the espresso will melt the gelato slightly, creating a delicious blend.

4

Serve

Serve the affogato immediately with a spoon. Optionally, you can garnish with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for added flavor.
