Starbucks has combined two beloved treats—ice cream and coffee—into a delightful new offering that promises to elevate your caffeine experience. As parents know, coffee is often our lifeline, powering us through early mornings and late nights. When sleep is scarce, a little caffeine boost becomes essential, so why not make it a sweet one?
For those who adore coffee and have a penchant for sweets, your dream combo has arrived. Starbucks is now serving ice cream alongside its coffee selections. Yes, you read that right—ice cream at Starbucks!
According to Business Insider, this delectable addition will be featured on the Roastery Affogato menu, where the rich taste of espresso meets the creamy goodness of ice cream. Affogatos are a classic Italian dessert made by pouring a shot of espresso over a scoop of ice cream. Starting today, this treat will be available in select cities like Los Angeles, Boston, and Washington, DC, with plans for a nationwide rollout. The concept was previously tested at their Seattle Roastery and quickly became a fan favorite.
With the perfect mix of sugar and caffeine, I can already envision myself finishing my weekend errands in record time—potentially by 8:49 AM—before settling down with a good book and maybe even squeezing in a nap. Well, if only I didn’t have three kids to keep me on my toes!
The new icy coffee treats will be priced from $6 for the Classic Affogato to $8.50 for the Cold Brew Malt, which features small-lot cold brew, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate bitters. While the prices might seem steep, who can resist? It’s coffee and ice cream! At least it’s not like that $47.30 “Quadriginoctuple Frap” order from a guy in Washington state—now that’s a whole different level of indulgence!
Starbucks is also planning to explore more budget-friendly options at 100 locations in California, catering to those who enjoy their coffee without breaking the bank. Over the years, the coffee giant has successfully increased sales by introducing higher-priced items such as bistro boxes and breakfast sandwiches, and now the Roastery Affogato menu is set to follow suit, but with ice cream, so we’re likely to embrace it wholeheartedly.
