The Affogato
Affogato is an Italian dessert that's become well-known across the globe. It's made by combining espresso and vanilla Ice cream. The two ingredients are blended in a blender before being served in a tall glass.

According to me, the most significant aspect of the affogato is the fact that it's an ideal balance of the two ingredients that are milk and coffee. While in college, my friends and I would often discuss the affogato as one our favorite desserts. However, they were all different. Some prefer a strong espresso while others preferred a lighter one. Some people like it sweet, while others prefer it without sweetener. Also there are those who prefer it with whipped cream.

The affogato is an amalgamation of dessert and cocktail. You have the frozen ice cream, and then the espresso followed by the add alcohol.

It was like a combination of Ice cream and a shot of espresso. It was a delicious dessert.

In terms of the ratio of gelato to espresso the classic affogato is made with two cups gelato to one shot of espresso. But when you're making it yourself this ratio is a bit more flexible and easily modified based on the people you're serving. As a youngster when I was a kid, the ratio of gelato in comparison to espresso was a bit (ok quite a bit) more, but watching my grandma pour hot espresso over the cold gelato however skimpy her pour could have was enough to keep me hooked.
Is the espresso for An Affogato specially brewed?
If you are making an Affogato it is important to ensure that the espresso you choose to use is strong enough to drink by itself. The espresso that is used in an Affogato should be robust and rich. An espresso alternative such as the AeroPress, or the French press are acceptable, according to the same BrewEspressoCoffee.com source, but they are going to taste different from a real espresso pulled from a pump espresso machine.
