Hazelnut Iced Coffee

One of my fondest food memories in Italy was the discovery of the Nocciolino. It was in a small unassuming bar on a quiet street in Brindisi, where I first savoured the heavenly combination of an espresso with a scoop of hazelnut gelato. I had come to love affogato, a shot of espresso served with vanilla gelato, but the flavour of hazelnut together with a strong Italian caffè was unparalleled.

Hazelnut Iced Coffee

Inspired by the brilliant Laura of Veg com Carinho, I have found a cheat’s version to a Nocciolino, without gelato, but with a quick & creamy homemade hazelnut milk that takes your iced coffee to the next level.
