1
Brew the Espresso
Use an espresso machine to brew 2 shots of espresso. Make sure the machine is preheated and follow the manufacturer's instructions for optimal brewing.

2
Steam the Milk
In a small saucepan or using a milk steamer, heat 1 cup of milk until it is steaming, but not boiling. If using a saucepan, whisk the milk vigorously to create a frothy texture.

3
Combine Espresso and Milk
In a pre-warmed cup, pour the brewed espresso. Slowly add the steamed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon. Aim for a ratio of about 1 part espresso to 2 parts milk.
4
Add Sugar
Stir in 1 teaspoon of sugar into the cappuccino to taste. Adjust based on your preference.

5
Add Toppings
Dust the top of the cappuccino with 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for added flavor.
