This Salted Caramel Affogato combines espresso with one of my favorite after dinner treats: ice cream. It's the perfect way to end any meal!
Have you ever tried affogato?
Affogato is Italian for "drowned." It's a scoop of ice cream topped with a shot of hot espresso.
This delicious after drink / dessert is sweet, creamy, and so delicious ... the salted caramel flavor puts this classic drink over the top! You're going to love it, and best of all, it's so easy to make.
Salted Caramel Affogato
I was inspired to create this sweet treat after attending a fun event introducing the new Ninja Coffee Bar.
Look who I met there!
Sofia Vergara was just as sweet and funny as your might imagine!
Ninja partnered with Sofia, who's from Columbia and a major coffee aficionado, to help develop the Ninja Coffe Bar.
After the event, they sent me a Coffee Bar to try out. And I've been obsessed ever since!
In addition to regular coffee and iced coffee, the Ninja Coffee Bar also makes Specialty Brew, a highly concentrated coffee that's similar to espresso. You can use it to create coffeehouse-style hot and cold layered beverages ... right at home.
I used the Specialty Brew feature to create this Caramel Affogato.
How to Make Caramel Affogato
This delicious dessert drink could not be easier to create!
Simply make a batch of the Specialty Brew using the Ninja Coffee Bar (or substitute espresso or strong coffee), then mix it with salted caramel syrup.
Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a small coffee mug. Then pour the flavored coffee over the ice cream. A sprinkle of salt is the perfect finishing touch and enhances the sweet-salty flavor.
This Salted Caramel Affogato recipe serves two ... share it with someone special!
