The Affogato is Back!

Elixr Coffee

Elixr Coffee reserves two special days (this year: August 15^th and August 30^th) for their annual Affogato Day! Affogato is hosted by Philly’s own, Little Baby’s Ice-Cream and Elixr’s espresso.

An Affogato is a scoop of ice-cream topped with a shot of hot espresso. The two flavors of ice-cream included: blueberry ginger or smoked cinnamon. I decided to try the smoked cinnamon because I thought this flavor would pair well with the strong espresso. I was right!

Both flavors combined made it a delicious and unique summer treat! There is nothing better than ice-cream and coffee, so why not have them together? 

I also loved the presentation of the drink in a clear glass, so you can see how the ice-cream and hot espresso melt into one.

Make sure to make the next Affogato day which is on Saturday, August 30^th ! Pairings of the ice-cream and espressos will be different!
