Cappuccino

Cappuccino is an Italian espresso drink in which a single shot of espresso is topped with steamed milk and a thick cap of milk foam, traditionally in roughly equal thirds of espresso, hot milk and froth. The foam insulates and softens the coffee, so the drink reads as a warm, creamy, gently sweet cup with the espresso's bitterness rounded off, served in a small cup of about one hundred and fifty to one hundred and eighty millilitres and often finished with a dusting of cocoa or cinnamon.
