ITALIAN CAPPUCCINO
This is a normal espresso coffee with
steam-heated milk that gives the
coffee a milder flavour and a rich,
frothy topping. Serve in a large cup.
Pour cold milk into a tall jug and heat
it using the steam spout if your
machine has one. Add only the froth to
the espresso coffee, to do this either
tilt the jug slightly
backwards and forwards while you
pour or use a spoon to scoop off the
froth.
You can also a dd a dusting of cocoa
powder to taste.
VIENNESE CAPPUCCINO
This variation is the result of age-old
Austrian tradition.
Prepare a 'long' espresso by letting the
machine run for longer than usual (30-
35 seconds), add hot milk followed by
whipped cream. Serve in a medium-
sized cup (midway
espresso cup and a cappuccino cup).
Decorate with flakes of chocolate.
COLD ESPRESSO SHAKE
Frothy and extremely refreshing, this
makes a pleasant drink on hot days.
Prepare an espresso coffee, add sugar

seconds.
