cappuccinoMost people think that a cappuccino is an overtly sophisticated coffee drink when in reality it is actually quite simply. Chances are that you have even tried a cappuccino unwittingly without knowing what it was actually called. At its most basic level, a cappuccino is just espresso with hot and steamed milk.

While this is the dictionary definition, there is now a litany of variations on this classic Italian beverage. Cappuccinos are available with a huge array of exotic flavor add-ins and combinations. Vanilla and chocolate are two of the most common, but the simple ingredients in this staple coffee beverage leave a lot of room for innovation and interpretation.
