Fresh berries with a drizzle of raspberry liqueur add subtle sweetness and a burst of color to a classic affogato.
Affogato with Chambord Sauce and Berries
Makes 6 servings
Ingredients
- ½ cup Chambord or other raspberry liqueur
- ½ cup fresh raspberries
- ½ cup fresh blackberries
- ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
- 3 cups vanilla ice cream
- ¾ cup hot brewed espresso*
- Garnish: fresh raspberries, fresh blackberries
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine Chambord, raspberries, blackberries, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to thicken, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes. (If berry sauce becomes too thick, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.)
- Scoop ½ cup vanilla ice cream each into 6 serving bowls.
- Just before serving, pour 2 tablespoons hot espresso over ice cream. Drizzle with Chambord mixture. Garnish with fresh berries, if desired. Serve immediately.
