1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. If you do not have an espresso machine, you can use strong brewed coffee as an alternative.
2
Sweeten Espresso
Add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the hot espresso and stir until dissolved.

3
Heat Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until steaming, but not boiling. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother if available.
4
Froth Milk
Using a whisk or milk frother, froth the heated milk until it becomes creamy and has doubled in volume.

5
Combine Espresso and Milk
Pour the sweetened espresso into a large cup. Gently pour the frothed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon.
6
Add Foam
Spoon the remaining foam on top of the cappuccino.
7
Garnish
Sprinkle cocoa powder and optionally cinnamon on top for garnish.
