How to make it

See as list See Step by Step
STEP 1OF 5

Brew 1 shot of espresso.

We recommend Starbucks® Single-Origin Colombia by Nespresso® for this recipe. You can also try Starbucks® Single-Origin Colombia by NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto.
STEP 2OF 5

Froth your warmed milk or dairy alternative.

Quick lifehack: you can use your French press as a milk frother (once you’ve poured the coffee out, of course).
STEP 3OF 5

Pour the espresso shot into your favourite mug.

Any mug will work, but your favourite is always best.
STEP 4OF 5

Add the frothed milk or dairy alternative.

The rich and creamy milk foam makes this cappuccino truly special. The more froth, the better – try and get a 50% milk, 50% froth balance to up your cappuccino game.
STEP 5OF 5

Sprinkle the cinnamon or chocolate shavings on top.

Only if you’re feeling fancy. It’s not a necessity, but it is pretty delicious.
