No coffeehouse or cappuccino maker in sight? Whip up a tasty instant version with a little ingenuity and some common ingredients.
You Will Need
- 2 oz. boiling water
- 2 tbsp. instant coffee
- 2 tbsp. sugar or sugar substitute
- 5 ice cubes
- A blender
- 1/3 c. heavy cream
- Cinnamon or cocoa powder
- Regular, low-fat, or non-fat milk
- Whipped cream
Step 1: Boil some water
Boil two ounces of water.
Step 2: Mix coffee, water, and sugar
Dissolve two tablespoons of instant coffee and two tablespoons of sugar or sugar substitute into two ounces of boiling water.
Step 3: Pour into blender
Let the coffee mixture cool, then pour it into a blender with five ice cubes. Blend until slushy.
Step 4: Add cream
Add heavy cream and blend until frothy.
For a less caloric cappuccino, substitute regular, low-fat, or non-fat milk for the cream.
Step 5: Sprinkle with cinnamon
Sprinkle with cinnamon or cocoa powder and serve. Or add a dollop of whipped heavy cream for a decadent touch.
Cappuccino was named after the 16th-century Capuchin monks of Italy, because the color of the coffee concoction resembled their robes.
