Homemade Cappuccino

25 minutes
Homemade cappuccino is a true delight for coffee lovers. Its history traces back to Italy, where it became a symbol of the morning ritual. This recipe uses freshly ground coffee brewed with aromatic spices: cardamom and cinnamon, adding refined spiciness to the drink. The delicate milk foam, whipped by hand, gives the cappuccino an airy texture, while a pinch of cocoa powder adds a subtle chocolate note. Thanks to the cream, the drink gains richness and softness. Cappuccino is perfect for morning awakening or cozy evenings; its aroma warms you up and its taste brings harmony. Served in warmed cups to retain heat and reveal the full flavor palette. Breathe in this moment—your homemade cappuccino is made with love!
