Cappuccino originated in Italy, with its name derived from the Capuchin friars' brown robes. This iconic coffee drink is made with equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and milk foam, creating a creamy and frothy texture. The history of cappuccino dates back to the 17th century, and it has since become a staple in coffee culture worldwide. In Italy, renowned chefs and cafes in cities like Rome and Milan have perfected the art of crafting the perfect cappuccino. Today, the best versions of this beloved drink can be found in authentic Italian cafes, where skilled baristas expertly balance the rich espresso, velvety milk, and airy foam to create a truly exceptional cappuccino.
