It’s a bit difficult when you have to choose between two options that you haven’t really tried.

Coffee with ice cream? I know there are such “cocktails” around Europe and many people tend to enjoy that when summer heat kicks in. Of course coffee has to be cooled down, otherwise it would melt the ice cream. That’s not how you want your ice cream probably, although there are people who will like this. After all you’ll end up with a coffee flavored ice cream I would not call this ice cream coffee.

Coffee and liquor? I think this is the option for me. Although I haven’t tried this combination, there are some coffee varieties that undergo a fermentation process.

This controlled fermentation gives them a very distinctive taste nuances like whiskey or rum, or chocolate liqueur. I’ve tried some coffees like this, and they seem prety interesting and rich in taste. All of this leads me to the opinion, that coffee would fit pretty well with some nuts liqueur.

One thing is sure… Coffee goes well with everything that has some sweet taste and coffee flavor really compliment well some desserts. So either choice you make, u you oh probably will be happy.

I have tried coffee with ice-cream many times and it's really good. There are ice-cream with coffee flavor also which is my favorite because I am a coffee lover. Everything that has coffee would always be favorite except with liquor. I have never tasted yet but I probably not to try because I am not fond of drinking liquors or rum either.

So, I agree with you that coffee better goes with ice-cream 🍦☕😍👍

I can only eat ice cream on the first place, and then have some coffee to wash the sweet taste off. Not that I dislike it that much, but I really prefer the taste of coffee.

I haven't tried it yet. I limit myself with sweets that's why I eat ice cream separately, then I'd drink coffee after. Either way, I love having both!

You can always start by venturing into one of them, you may be pleasantly surprised.

An example of combining coffee with liquor is the classic Irish Coffee and although it does not have ice cream it has a generous amount of whipped cream that when mixed together is similar to melting ice cream. Here we have the two "flavors" together with coffee. They are different but delicious experiences (at least for me).

Yeah, whiskey is a good friend to coffee, especially in Ireland and I’ve had and Irish coffee, but I think here it’s about liqueur. Something like Baileys or almond liqueur for instance. I don’t think ice cream with coffee will be passable on my taste buds… 😁

Indeed, iced coffee is very sweet. See below in the chat I post a delicious Baileys frappuccino coffee 😄

Sweet with ice cream, strong with whiskey, coffee always has that magic touch that gives us the energy and sense of well-being we need.

I only have good experiences with coffee with ice cream, I have also tried coffee ice cream many times, especially mocaccino. I would have to try a stronger and more delicious flavor with liquor; something with which my palate feels comfortable. There are many combinations and flavors to explore.
