Notes
For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate ice cream or add a drizzle of chocolate syrup before pouring the espresso. You can also top it with whipped cream or sprinkle some cocoa powder to enhance the presentation.
If you prefer a non-dairy option, use almond or coconut ice cream as a substitute. Experiment with flavored espresso, such as hazelnut or vanilla, for a unique twist.
