Affogato means drowned (drowned in strong coffee or espresso) in Italian.

Affogato is probably one of the quickest Italian desserts to make and at the same time it is so delicious. If you are in a rush to make a dessert, just drop a scoop of vanilla gelato or ice cream and top with a shot of hot espresso. Affogato is ready to serve!
