Cappuccino is a classic Italian coffee drink of equal parts espresso, hot milk, and milk foam.

Cappuccino is one of the most popular and beloved coffee drinks in the world, a classic of Italian coffee culture. Its name is connected with the Capuchin monks, whose brown robes resembled the colour of the drink.

A classic cappuccino consists of three roughly equal parts: a shot of espresso, hot milk, and airy milk foam on top. It is precisely the thick, velvety, fine-pored foam that is the hallmark of a quality cappuccino. To create it, the milk is specially steamed in the coffee machine to a silky, creamy texture. The harmonious combination of the rich taste of coffee and the tender creamy milk makes cappuccino balanced and pleasant. By Italian tradition it is drunk mostly in the morning, at breakfast. Often the surface of the drink is decorated with milk patterns (latte art) or dusted with cocoa or cinnamon. Cappuccino is a true symbol of the European café and of the daily ritual of enjoying coffee.
