Cappuccino extravaganza

More than a mere coffee, a cappuccino is a delectable treat that will make your taste buds blossom. Inspired by the famous Vienna coffee, this hot drink will get your senses bubbling thanks to the delicious combination of light espresso coffee, frothy milk and if you are lucky, a sprinkle of cocoa powder. Yet contrary to what some may think, there are thousands of ways to enjoy a cappuccino.

Although we can all add the ingredients we prefer to it, some recipes are truly worth sharing. This is the case for the iced cappuccino, as well as the hazelnut cappuccino and vanilla cappuccino. Let’s take a closer look at these fantastic recipes, filled with surprises.

1 Indulge in a subtle hazelnut cappuccino

What if delicious, subtle hints of hazelnut were added to your cappuccino? This is exactly what the hazelnut cappuccino has to offer. Perfect for the autumn and winter months, this recipe will be a real delight for your taste buds. The combination of coffee, creamy milk and a touch of hazelnut will without a doubt take your senses on the most wonderful journey.

You had best use whole hazelnuts, to get the very best taste out of your cappuccino. Take the time to grind them before mixing them with some sugar and putting them in the oven. Once golden brown, your sweet hazelnut mixture will replace the traditional cocoa powder used on standard cappuccinos. This is such a great new twist to your favourite hot drink recipe.

2 An iced cappuccino for some frosted fun

What better season than summer to try a new and refreshing drink? To cool off during a heatwave or simply for a delicious afternoon treat, an iced cappuccino is always a great choice. Iced cappuccinos are a wonderfully refreshing recipe that everyone can enjoy. An iced cappuccino contains less milk than a traditional latte and boasts more intense espresso flavours than a standard cappuccino, revealing a smooth texture and deliciously creamy foam on top.

Coffee-lovers from all over the world have different ways of preparing this delicious drink, using various ingredients. In Italy - where the drink is called cappuccino freddo - cold frothy milk is added to the top of the iced cappuccino. In America, the drink is even creamier as it is often a dessert half-way between ice cream and coffee.

3 Vanilla cappuccino - when Italy meets the Indian Ocean

After trying the iced and hazelnut cappuccino, what better than a vanilla cappuccino to take your taste buds on a journey to the other side of the world? This recipe is perfect for a tasty, exotic break - boasting a softer and milder coffee flavour. The combination of vanilla and creamy milk is perfect for serving to people who have never tried coffee before. Whether from Madagascar or Reunion Island, the vanilla used will take you on a journey between two worlds: the Indian Ocean on one side, and Italy on the other.

Just like the iced cappuccino or hazelnut cappuccino, the vanilla cappuccino can be made in many different ways. Once again, feel free to try several recipes so you find the perfect one that will brighten up your taste buds and awaken your senses. You can use either vanilla extract or a fresh pod, whipped cream, vanilla-flavoured sugar, cocoa powder and any other ingredients that take your fancy.
