Method

Preparation

1

Brew the Espresso

Using an espresso machine, brew one shot of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use a stovetop moka pot or a strong coffee brew method.

2

Sweeten the Espresso

Add one teaspoon of sugar to the hot espresso and stir until dissolved. This step is optional based on your sweetness preference.

3

Scoop the Ice Cream

In a serving glass or bowl, place one generous scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Assembly

4

Combine

Pour the hot espresso over the scoop of vanilla ice cream. The heat will melt the ice cream slightly and create a delicious mix.

5

Add Toppings (Optional)

If desired, sprinkle chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder on top for extra flavor and presentation.
