Black Tea Affogato

teas.co.uk · 5 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 2 Teapigs Everyday Brew tea temples
• 60ml just boiled water, for a very strong shot
• 2 small scoops good vanilla ice cream
• 1 teaspoon demerara sugar, optional
• A little grated dark chocolate or a biscuit, to serve

Method

1. Steep the 2 tea temples in just 60ml of just boiled water for 4 minutes, for an intense, espresso strength shot. Little water and two bags is the key to enough punch to stand up to the ice cream.
2. Squeeze out the bags and stir in the demerara, if using, while the shot is piping hot.
3. Put two scoops of cold vanilla ice cream into a small glass, straight from the freezer so it is firm.
4. Pour the hot tea shot over the ice cream at the table, so it starts melting on contact.
5. Finish with grated dark chocolate or a crisp biscuit, and eat at once, while it is hot and cold together.
