Imagining days curled up on the couch embracing those cozy fall vibes? Sweater weather’s about to hit, so that means pumpkin, pumpkin, pumpkin! We know everyone’s into PSLs—and we make a mean pumpkin chai latte—but we tried our hand at a pumpkin spice affogato tea recipe.
No idea what “affogato” means? Don’t worry about it (in Italian accent). This coffee-based dessert is home to Italy, and traditionally involves ice cream or “gelato” (insert Italian accent again) with a shot of hot espresso. But this is the tea world, so we put our own twist on it!
Ingredients
- 4 Perfect Spoons of Pumpkin Chai loose leaf tea
- ½ cup of hot water (95°C / 200°F)
- 2 scoops of ice cream
- Whipped cream—optional!
