Drink name: Fragrant Affogato Delight
Drink description/entry :



Iona places a tall, narrow mug decorated in copper leaves before you. Within it swirls light, neutral colors that create a pleasant coffee bean and floral smell.Iona wrote:Greetings, friend. I'm no expert in coffee, but this is a recipe I like to make for myself and my girlfriend when we want a summer coffee- one that will replenish your energy while cooling you down, too.
The server smiles and sticks a copper spoon on top of the mixture before garnishing it with a sprig of dried White asphodel.Iona wrote:The ice cream now beginning to melt in the mug is flavored with Eden buttercups, which are ground and chopped into the ice cream mix, giving it a light and uplifting yet still inoffensive floral taste. The buttercup ice cream is a bit plain on its own, but it accentuates the other ingredient of the Affogato exquisitely: a Thorny dust flower espresso. Rich, earthy, somewhat reminiscent of dark soil, this chocolate-y espresso is drizzled over the buttercup ice cream while still warm, blending the flavors of the two ingredients. The most interesting part of the drink is the crema of the espresso, made mostly of the dust flower head; it foams on the surface and imparts a bitter flavor, allowing the drink to be an experience from first sip (or bite!) to the last. It even creatures a journey in your mouth, from thorny bitter foam to rich, earthy espresso, followed by the soothing coolness of the buttercup cream.
