Cappuccino

Pin It Now!

Cappuccino is a coffee drink topped with foamed milk, and is loved by a majority of people during the cold winter season. It's  so easy to make a perfect cup of cappuccino right in your kitchen in hardly less then 10 minutes.

Cappuccino

 Ingredients:

1 cup milk
1 tsp instant coffee
1 tsp sugar (or to taste)
Water
Cocoa Powder/ cinnamon powder to garnish (optional)


Method:

Pour milk in a saucepan and heat on low flame. Mean while put the coffee and sugar, add 1 tbsp of water in a cup and stir vigorously with a spoon. Beat it until the colour changes to light brown. If it becomes too stiff to beat you can add a tsp of water, make sure that the coffee mixture stays a thick consistency. Once done fill ¼ p with hot water. You can also use and electric mixer to beat the coffee is making more then 2 or 3 cups.

Once the milk starts to boil, take a ladle and fill it with milk, bring the spoon to a height of about 6 – 8 inches from the milk surface and pour it bake into the saucepan. Do this for a couple minutes. You will get a smooth and lovely froth on the milk, or you can also whisk it with a whisker vigorously. Pour the milk into the cup in a thin stream into the beaten coffee mixture from a height of 2 inches. The frothed milk and coffee mixture will create a lovely froth over the cup. Pour milk until the froth is just near the rim of the mug, or you can also hold back the froth with a large spoon while pouring the milk in to the cup and  then finish it off by topping it with the froth. Sprinkle some cocoa powder on the froth and serve immediately.
