Zaanse Schans Cappuccino

Ingredients

Espresso

1 shot

Milk

1 cup

Sugar

1 tablespoon (adjust to taste)

Whipped cream

2 tablespoons

Cocoa powder

1 teaspoon

Cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Brew a shot of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
3. Using a milk frother or a whisk, froth the hot milk until it becomes creamy and foamy, creating a velvety texture.
4. Pour the hot espresso into a coffee cup and add 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.
5. Slowly pour the frothed milk into the cup, using a spoon to hold back the foam, allowing the espresso and milk to blend beautifully while creating a layered effect.
6. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder on top of the foam for a touch of chocolatey goodness.
7. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and finish with a light sprinkle of cinnamon for a fragrant garnish.
8. Serve hot and savor the delightful flavors of your Zaanse Schans Cappuccino!
