Ingredients
-
1 cup Tonomi's Dark Roast Coffee, cold-brewed
-
2 scoops vanilla ice cream (or gelato)
-
Optional: Chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or biscotti for garnish
Directions
Prepare your cold brew by steeping Tonomi's Dark Roast Coffee grounds in cold water for 12-24 hours. Once brewed, strain and store the coffee in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Place two generous scoops of vanilla ice cream into a chilled serving glass or bowl.
Slowly pour the cold-brewed Tonomi's Dark Roast Coffee over the ice cream, allowing it to gently melt and infuse the dessert with its rich, bold flavors.
For an extra touch of decadence, sprinkle chocolate shavings, a dusting of cocoa powder, or serve with a biscotti on the side.
Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious blend of cold brew coffee and creamy ice cream.
Recipe Note
Tips:
Ensure your coffee is cold-brewed for a smoother, less acidic flavor that complements the sweetness of the ice cream.
Experiment with different ice cream flavors such as chocolate, hazelnut, or caramel for a unique twist on this classic dessert.
For a boozy version, add a splash of your favorite liqueur, such as amaretto or coffee liqueur, to the cold brew before pouring over the ice cream.
