This German recipe for eiskaffee, or coffee and ice cream, attempts to recreate the flavor and feeling of a sidewalk café in Germany. Cold coffee and ice cream never tasted so good, and the caffeine content has a restorative quality.

There's nothing like winding down after a heavy dinner with this delicious ice cream drink. Eiskaffee is German for ice cream coffee. Traditional Eiskeaffee is made with a vanilla bean ice cream that nicely accents the coffee flavor. However, we prefer to shake things up with other flavors like Rocky Road or Butter Pecan with our Arabica blend.

Find the best cup of coffee for you.

Profile:	Meaty, full-bodied, hazelnut notes
Place:	Germany
Process:	Mix together cold coffee, evaporated milk, and sugar to taste until sugar dissolves completely. Pour the chilled coffee-milk-sugar mixture over it and top with a dollop of whipped cream.
Pairing:	Fresh fruits and fruit-based sweets can offer a lighter, healthier pairing option for some coffees.

Measure:

In a glass or metal bowl, mix together cold coffee, evaporated milk, and sugar to taste until sugar dissolves completely. Chill thoroughly.

Place 1/2 cup of vanilla ice cream in each of the bottoms of two tall glasses. Pour the chilled coffee-milk-sugar mixture over it and top with a dollop of whipped cream.

If desired, the whipped cream can be sweetened by adding sifted confectioners' sugar to taste but, traditionally, it is left unsweetened.

Serve immediately with an iced-tea spoon if desired. It doesn't get any better than this.

Store:

The best way to keep ground coffee or whole beans fresh is to store the coffee on a pantry shelf in an opaque airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture.

Espressino

No, it's not a typo; we do mean Espressino. This espresso beverage can be prepared in two different ways. We follow the northern Espressino recipe from Italy - where we use Nutella instead of cocoa powder.

Galao

The Galão is dangerously close to the caffe latte or cafe au lait. Galão is prepared with one-quarter of our Robusta-espresso blend and three-quarters of foamed milk served in a tall glass.
