Method

Preparing the Coffee

  1. 1

    Brew Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso coffee. Ensure the coffee is freshly ground for the best flavor.

  2. 2

    Dilute with Hot Water

    In a small cup, mix the brewed espresso with 50 ml of hot water to create a more balanced flavor.

Frothing the Milk

  1. 3

    Heat the Milk

    In a small saucepan or milk frother, heat 150 ml of milk until it is hot but not boiling.

  2. 4

    Froth the Milk

    Once heated, use a milk frother or whisk to froth the milk until it becomes light and airy, creating a creamy texture.

Assembling the Cappuccino

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cappuccino cup, pour the diluted espresso first, then gently add the frothed milk on top, allowing it to float.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle 1 tsp of cocoa powder on top of the frothed milk and add sugar to taste, stirring gently if desired.
