An Affogato is the perfect dessert for summer, combining vanilla bean ice cream or gelato with rich coffee for creamy goodness in a cup. At Giorgio, we like to make our Affogatos extra special by adding our secret ingredient: Amaretto, an Italian almond-flavored liqueur.
Affogatos have been a long-standing traditional Italian dessert, functioning as a substitute for an after-dinner coffee or espresso. The key to a perfect Affogato is the combination of temperatures that make each bite extra special and allows for the ice cream or gelato to slowly melt.
