Italian Dessert Inspires Starbucks Affogato-Style Frappuccino
In neighborhood trattorias in Italy, dinner is often finished off with gelato affogato – a scoop of Italian ice cream drowned in a shot of espresso.
Starting today (July 7) customers at #starbucks stores in the U.S. and Canada can enjoy Affogato-style #frappuccino blended beverages. For this beverage, a barista pours a shot of espresso over a finished #starbucks #frappuccino; the hot espresso mingles with the icy #frappuccino to create creamy pockets of coffee.
“We start with a shot of our smooth signature Espresso Roast known for its rich flavor and caramelly sweetness,” said Ryan Coombes from the #starbucks beverage development team. “When you pour the espresso over the #frappuccino, it creates a beautiful marbling finish.”
Starbucks will feature three #frappuccino blended beverages Affogato-style: Vanilla Bean, Caramel and Mocha, although any #frappuccino can be ordered Affogato-style with a shot of espresso poured on top.
Last month, the Starbucks Reserve® Roastery and Tasting Room brought customers Affogato-style cold beverages. Now, Affogato-style #frappuccino blended beverages will be available in participating #starbucks stores U.S. and Canada starting July 7 and throughout the summer.
