1
Brew the Coffee
Start by brewing a double shot of Illy Classico coffee. Use 18 grams of coffee grounds and 240 ml of water in your espresso machine. Brew until you have a rich, concentrated shot of espresso.
2
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 120 ml of milk over medium heat until it's steaming. Do not let it boil.
3
Froth the Milk
Using a milk frother or whisk, froth the heated milk until it has doubled in volume and is creamy with a velvety texture.
4
Combine Coffee and Milk
In a cappuccino cup, pour the double shot of espresso, followed by the steamed milk. Allow the frothy milk to settle on top.
5
Add Sugar and Cocoa
Stir in sugar to taste, and sprinkle cocoa powder on top of the frothed milk for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
6
Serve
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious cappuccino!
