Caffeinated Ice Cream Cocktails

This Alcoholic Affogato Recipe Incorporates Bourbon and Espresso

If you are the kind of person who enjoys putting booze in your coffee, than you will love this affogato recipe. Created by PornBurger's Mathew Ramsey for Buzzfeed, the Bourbon and Espresso Adult Affogato features peanut butter and bacon flavored ice cream as well.

A typical affogato recipe consists of a shot of hot espresso poured over vanilla ice cream or gelato. This concoction takes a lot of liberties. Beginning with a bourbon and caramel base, you add homemade peanut butter and bacon ice cream. Or you can experiment here with different store-bought varieties, plain peanut butter or good old vanilla ice cream. Either way, garnishing with crispy bacon bits is always the right decision. The hot espresso comes last.
