cappuccino
Foamed milk coffee
Cappuccino is an espresso drink topped with steamed milk foam, traditionally served in a small cup.
The foam layer is thick enough to hold its shape, distinguishing it from a latte's thinner milk.
Named for the brown robes of Capuchin friars, the color resembling the drink.
I'll have a cappuccino with an extra shot.
