Mocha Cappuccino

We all know that a Cappuccino is an Italian drink prepared usually with espresso, hot milk and with milk foam. Though cream is usually used in this drink its often topped with cinnamon powder. Cappuccino is usually prepared with an espresso machine, but if you want to make it at home without any specific gadgets like espresso machine you can still make this fabulous drink. Cappuccino is traditionally served as a small serving with thick layer of foam, obviously if you are a coffee lover its better to make your own dose of cappuccino at home with less efforts.

Few days back, i tried my hands in making mocha cappuccino at home, when cocoa is added to strong brewed coffee makes this mocha cappuccino. Obviously its my favourite drink since ever i prepared at home,now i make it quite often. I use hand blender to create the foam with hot milk and this works. However my mocha cappuccino rocks,as much as like the one we can easily with the espresso machine. If you love both coffee and chocolate in your drink, then this mocha cappuccino will definitely please your taste buds. This super delicious drink is going to be a part of this week's blogging marathon as am running Make three drinks as theme for this week.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#61.
