Cappuccino is an Italian coffee mixed with the same amount of Italian espresso and steamed milk. The color of the coffee is like a cappuccino monk covering a dark brown coat with a headscarf, hence the name caffeine. The traditional cappuccino is 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk and 1/3 foamed milk, and sprinkled with small particles of cinnamon powder.

Cappuccino coffee tastes good, but the origin of its name is more knowledgeable, and it has always been the best theme for the study of character changes in Europe and the United States. The history of the word Cappuccino is enough to show that a word is often extended to other meanings because it looks like something, far beyond the original intention of the creator. It sounds complicated. Founded after 1525, the monks of the St. Franciscan Church (Capuchin) were all dressed in brown robes and pointed hats. When the St. Franciscan Church spread to Italy, the locals thought the monks' clothes were very special, so they gave them the name Cappuccino. The Italian word refers to the loose robes and small pointed hats worn by monks, derived from the Italian word "headscarf" or Cappuccino.

However, the old man loved coffee and found that when espresso, milk and foam were mixed, the color was like the dark brown robe worn by monks, so he came up with a drink with coffee and sharp bubbles, which was named Cappuccino. The word was first used in English in 1948, when a report in San Francisco first introduced cappuccino beverages. It was not until 1990 that it became a familiar coffee drink. It should be possible to say that the word Cappuccino coffee comes from the St. Franciscan Church (Capuchin) and the Italian headscarf (Cappucio). It is believed that the original word makers of Cappuccino never dreamed that the monks' robes would eventually become the name of a coffee drink.

Cappuccino coffee is a variation of Italian coffee, that is, strong coffee is poured with steamed milk, and the color of the coffee is like the headscarf on the dark brown coat of cappuccino monks, hence the name caffeine.

Cappuccino is also related to the name of a monkey. There is a small monkey in Africa with a black cone-shaped hair on its head, much like a pointed hat on a Franciscan robe, hence the name Capuchin, which was first used by the British in 1785.

The word Capuchin has evolved into coffee drink names and monkey names hundreds of years later, which has always been an interesting story for literati.
