Since Affogato contains both ice cream and coffee, it may sometimes not be clear whether it can be eaten or drunk. If you are wondering how to eat affogato, we can say that both can actually happen. Hot espresso added to cold ice cream begins to melt the top surface of the ice cream. It is possible to eat the entire affogato by scooping both ice cream and coffee into your spoon.
