What is a Muggaccino?


QUESTION:

I would like to know how much coffee would go into making a Muggaccino. Can you help?

ANSWER:

A Muggaccino is simply the name give to a Cappuccino that is served in a mug, rather than a glass.

To make Cappuccino, first make a single or double espresso, then add steamed milk and a little milk foam.

So, when you ask how much coffee goes into a Muggaccino, the accurate answer is, none. You make it with espresso, not coffee.

For more information about the various elements involved in brewing great coffee, read our page on how to make coffee.

I would substitute "little foam" with "lot of foam" or "healthy amount of foam." Most restaurants get that wrong and serve you plain old lattes when you ask for a cappuccino. They're two different animals.
