Italian Cappuccino Recipe

Ingredients:
1 cup milk
ground cinnamon or nutmeg, garnish (optional)
2 -3 ounces brewed espresso (double shot)


Preparation Instructions:
Using an espresso machine or cappuccino maker, brew 2 shots of espresso. Steam 1 cup milk, generating a good amount of thick froth for crema. Divide the espresso into 2 serving mugs. Divide steamed milk between the 2 as well. Then top each with half of the thick foam. Note that the ideal ratio should be 1/3 espresso, 1/3 milk, 1/3 crema. Dust with cinnamon and/or freshly grated nutmeg, if desired. Serve.
