How to make the perfect Italian cappuccino

When you think of the ideal cup of cappuccino, you must be imagining yourself on the terrace of a small cafe in Rome, where you can enjoy hours of endless frothy drink and the view of passers-by racing on Vespa. Believe it or not, just such an experience can be repeated in your own home, with a few tricks of top Italian baristas, who know how to achieve the ideal foam, light as a cloud.

Coffee that conquers all the senses, for any time of the day

Real Italians drink cappuccino only for breakfast, with sweet or savory pastries, but once you discover the perfect formula for this elegant drink, you will not be able to resist it even in the afternoon.

Light and frothy cappuccino is a favorite hot beverage of many coffee lovers. The combination of espresso coffee, steamed milk, and rich milk foam brings real pleasure from the first to the last sip and that is what makes it special. So that you no longer have to run to a nearby cafe, below is a recipe for the perfect cappuccino at home.

What are the tricks for a dream cappuccino?

1. Foam, foam, foam

Primarily, it is its irresistible foam that must make up a quarter of the total volume. The foam must be shiny and contain bubbles that are so small that they cannot be seen, but that makes the milk lighter and thicker.

2. Soft taste of seductive aroma

The perfect cappuccino must be well balanced, without a clearly defined taste. The distinctive smell of espresso is reduced and softened due to the texture, taste, and smell of milk.

3. Whole milk for a premium foam

Cappuccino can be made with light versions of milk, but for the best foam, use the trick of a real master and use whole milk, which will create a foam that stands firmly on the spoon and melts divinely in the mouth.

4. A cup that brings happiness

For the ultimate experience, pour the cappuccino into a clear, glass cup, which will reveal it in full beauty, or choose a charmingly sprayed ceramic cup that will take the coffee drinking experience to a new level.
