How to Make Batista S Cappuccino

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup milk (whole milk recommended for best creaminess), 2 tablespoons espresso powder (or 2 shots freshly brewed espresso), 1 tablespoon sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference), and a pinch of cinnamon.
  2. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it's steaming and heated through (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
  3. Pour into your favorite mug.
  4. Top with whipped cream (optional) and a sprinkle of cocoa powder or cinnamon for extra flair.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
