## Summary

Italian-style affogato: hot Teapigs Chocolate and Mint concentrate poured over a scoop of vanilla ice cream with a dark chocolate grating.

## Description

An affogato is the Italian trick of pouring hot espresso over a scoop of vanilla ice cream so it half-melts into a soft, creamy dessert. This is a caffeine-free version: instead of espresso, you pour a strong, hot brew of Teapigs Chocolate and Mint over the ice cream. Chocolate, mint and vanilla together is more or less a deconstructed mint-choc-chip, and it works really well.

Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/recipes/mint-tea/chocolate-and-mint-affogato/Brew the tea much stronger than a normal cup, since it is going straight over cold ice cream that will dilute it. Chill the glasses first to buy yourself a few seconds, and bring it to the table the moment you pour, as it is at its best in the first couple of minutes.
