Pure Indulgence: Espresso Affogato with Xaymaca Elegance
Sometimes the most luxurious experiences are also the simplest. Meet the Espresso Affogato—a dessert that blends two beloved indulgences: smooth, rich Xaymaca Espresso and velvety vanilla ice cream. The result is an instant Italian classic reimagined with the finesse of Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee, creating a café-quality treat you can serve in seconds.
The Affogato, Elevated by Blue Mountain Beans
Traditional affogato relies on a shot of hot espresso poured over ice cream, creating a warm-meets-cold sensation that’s delightfully rich. But when you use Xaymaca Espresso, brewed from 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain beans, the experience becomes elevated. With natural notes of chocolate, mild acidity, and exceptional smoothness, this espresso doesn’t just melt the ice cream—it transforms it into something unforgettable.
Recipe: Espresso Affogato with Xaymaca Espresso
Ingredients:
- 1 generous scoop of premium vanilla ice cream
- 1 shot freshly brewed Xaymaca Espresso
Directions:
