#7 Macchiato

Lattes and cappuccinos are both made from espresso and milk. The distinction between a latte vs a cappuccino lies in the espresso to milk ratio and whether the milk is frothed or steamed.

A cappuccino is characterized by a rich head of milk that has been frothed to twice its original volume, which makes the ideal canvas for foam art using everything from cocoa powder to syrups and nuts.
