Ingredients
- Cannoli shell crumbs
- 1 tablespoon
- Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon, plus extra for dusting
- Whipped cream
- 1 dollop
- Cannoli syrup
- 2 tablespoons
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Espresso
- 1 shot
Instructions
- Start by brewing a shot of espresso using an espresso machine. Set it aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat. Be careful not to let it boil, you just want it hot.
- Once hot, remove the milk from heat. Add in the cannoli syrup and whisk it until it's well combined with the milk.
- Pour the cannoli-infused milk into a blender. Blend it on high speed until it becomes frothy. This should take about a minute.
- Carefully pour the frothy cannoli milk into your favorite coffee cup. Slowly add in the brewed espresso shot, trying not to disrupt the froth.
- Top your cannoli cappuccino with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Dust it with cocoa powder for that extra touch of indulgence.
- Finally, garnish with cannoli shell crumbs. This adds a delightful crunch, reminiscent of a freshly bitten cannoli.
- Serve it hot, savor every sip, and enjoy the beautiful blend of Italy's iconic flavors!
Tips
- For an extra touch of authenticity, consider making homemade cannoli syrup. It's a simple blend of water, sugar, and cannoli spices like cinnamon and cloves.
- For a dairy-free option, use almond milk or oat milk instead of regular milk.
