teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 pyramid tea bag of Teapigs Yerba Mate
• 80ml hot whole milk (heated to 80C)
• 2 small scoops of dulce de leche ice cream

Method

1. Chill a small glass while you make the mate milk.
2. Heat the affogato milk in a small pan to steaming, not boiling.
3. Take it off the heat, add the mate pyramid, cover and leave five minutes.
4. Lift out the bag and whisk the milk smooth.
5. Scoop the dulce de leche ice cream into the chilled glass.
6. Pour the warm mate milk slowly over so it pools around the ice cream.
7. Eat straight away with a long spoon, while it is half warm and half cold.
8. Tip: the slight bitterness of mate stops the dulce de leche being too sweet, so resist adding any sugar.
