The holy grail of Italian coffee, a “cappuccino,” is made with equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and foamed milk, resulting in a warm and soothing drink perfect for starting your day.

However, keep in mind that ordering a cappuccino after 10 or 11 a.m. might get you some funny looks in Italy, as Italians believe that drinking too much milk after a meal can unsettle the stomach. If you want a similar drink in the afternoon, order a “macchiatone” instead.
To order it, say, “Vorrei un cappuccino, per favore.”
