Bicerin (Piedmontese: [bitʃeˈriŋ]) is a traditional hot drink native to Turin, Italy, made with espresso, ganache (a type of thick hot chocolate), and frothed milk, served layered in a small glass.
Origin
The word bicerin (Piedmontese for 'small glass') is the equivalent of Italian bicchierino (diminutive of bicchiere, lit.'glass').[citation needed]
Caffè al Bicerin, which sits across from the Santuario della Consolata in Turin's piazza della Consolata, has been serving the drink since the 18th century.
Liqueur
The Vincenzi Family Distillery in Turin also produces a chocolate hazelnut liqueur under this name.
