Cappuccino Basics – Coffee excellence

World Champion Cappuccino

The Cappuccino drink is one of the best!!! 

Cappuccino Basics are simple and easy to do when you know the process of creation. A Cappuccino coffee is espresso coffee with fresh milk and milk foam bubbles burst on the top. The heat of the coffee is insulated for a longer period of time by the burst of foam bubbles resting on top of the cup of coffee.

Cappuccino is a dark brown color and normally served in a porcelain cup. This coffee drink gained its name from the color of the robes of Capuchin monks in the 16th century. Cappuccino is a coffee drink always served in the morning before noon in Italy. Now many coffee chain stores have modified cappuccino into an all-day drink served around the world.

Cappuccino Basics – How to drink

  1. This drink should never be stirred with a spoon.
  2. Cappuccino is very sweet so there is no real need to add sugar. If you want it sweeter then use sugar but never use syrups because they don’t mix well with milk. Gently stir with a teaspoon. 
  3. Enjoy smelling the flavor of cinnamon or chocolate before drinking. 
  4. When you finish the drink, the foamed milk should be sticking to the bottom of the cup. If you don’t see this process then the Cappuccino was not made well enough.
