1
Brew the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. Pour the espresso into a large coffee cup.
2
Steam the Milk
In a saucepan or using a milk steamer, heat 1 cup of whole milk until it is hot but not boiling. If using a saucepan, whisk the milk continuously to create froth.
3
Combine Espresso and Milk
Slowly pour the steamed milk over the brewed espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon to create a layered effect.
4
Add Toppings
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder over the top of the cappuccino. Add sugar to taste, stirring gently to combine.

5
Serve the Cappuccino
Serve immediately while hot, optionally garnishing with additional cocoa powder or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
