What is an Affogato coffee?

  • Rise and shine my MF Products Blog readers, it’s Saturday morning and I already know some you have your music blaring and your MF Coffee brewing. There’s nothing better than a delicious cup of MF Coffee in the morning and today, we’re looking to switch things up from your typical espresso or flat white in the morning. Last week we received an email from an MF Product fan who asked for us to talk about different coffee recipes, their origin and how they’re made. We thought it was a great idea and to start us off on this series we will be talking about the Affogato Coffee. So, sit back and relax and we delve into another wonderful recipe.

The affogato is a hot and cold delicacy available on many specialty coffee shop menus, as well as in restaurants. The affogato is a dessert that can be made with two core ingredients: vanilla ice cream and espresso brewed MF Coffee. Originally invented in Italy, the word “affogato” literally translates as “drowned” in English. This is humorously fitting, as the affogato is no more than a scoop of ice cream “drowned” in a waterfall of hot brewed MFCoffee.

The dessert is such a phenomenon there’s even debates as to how one should consume this treat, some argue it should melt so it can be served as a beverage others argue that it should be eaten with a spoon instantly after the MF Coffee is poured on top.

So, we know about the recipes origins, but I’m now sure all of you are bursting to find out how it’s made well here it is.

Ingredients:

 

-          1 shot of MF Coffee espresso

 

-          1 scoop of vanilla ice cream

 

-          1 amaretti biscuit


Method:

1)      Brew a shot of MF Coffee espresso

2)      Add a scoop (or two!) of ice cream into a bowl

3)      Pour over your shot of coffee

4)      Crumble your biscuit and sprinkle over the top


Quick. Easy. Tasty. It’s the affogato coffee and it’s a MF favourite. Thanks for reading.
