Chaga Chicory Affogato
Affogato is an Italian coffee-based dessert that drowns gelato in coffee! Because our Organic Chaga Chicory delivers a robust coffee-like flavor, we thought it might make a great coffee substitute in this classic dessert. And we were right!
For a caffeine-free affogato alternative, simply steep a concentrate of our Organic Chaga Chicory and while it is still warm pour over the gelato, creating a delicious treat to savor at any time of day.
