Affogato
Affogato — a scoop of vanilla ice cream drowned in hot espresso — is a small but caffeine-containing treat. Enjoy occasionally and count the espresso toward your daily caffeine limit.
Count the espresso shot (~60-70mg caffeine) toward your 300mg daily limit
An affogato is simply a shot of hot espresso poured over vanilla gelato or ice cream. A single shot of espresso contains approximately 60-70mg of caffeine. If you're already having coffee during the day, factor this in. As a small, occasional dessert, it's a fine indulgence. The ice cream portion is completely safe.
Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
