Cappuccino

Cappuccino is an Italian  coffee  drink prepared with espresso, hot milk, and steamed-milk foam. A cappuccino as such differs from a caffè latte  in that it is prepared with much less steamed or textured milk than the caffè latte , with the total of espresso and milk/foam making up between approximately 150 ml and 180 ml (5 and 6 fluid ounces). The European cappuccino differs from the US understanding of the beverage in volume, as the US cappuccino is more often served as a 12 oz drink. A cappuccino is traditionally served in a porcelain cup , which has far better heat-retention characteristics than glass or paper. The foam on top of the cappuccino acts as an insulator and helps retain the heat of the liquid, allowing it to stay hotter longer.
