The Affogato al Caffe is a classic Italian dessert-drink hybrid, meaning "drowned" in Italian. It consists of vanilla gelato or ice cream "drowned" in hot espresso, creating a rich, creamy, and bold-flavored indulgence. Perfect as a post-meal treat or an afternoon pick-me-up, this dessert beautifully balances hot and cold elements in every bite.
