Chef's notes

Liqueur ideas:
If you would like to add liqueur to your affogato, we would recommend either Amaretto (almond-flavored), Frangelico (hazelnut-flavored), Bailey’s Irish Cream (creamy chocolate and vanilla-flavored), Kahlúa (coffee-flavored), or Sambuca (anise-flavored). Or you could also add a half shot of either rum, cognac, or brandy.
