First, the ingredients are exactly
First, the ingredients are exactly the same...Don’t pull your hair out just yet. Yes, these two Italian drinks both use a mix of espresso, steamed milk, and foam. But we promise there are some important differences that you should know about; we’ll cover those later.
But because the ingredients are pretty easy, you can make either of these at home with a little practice, using an espresso machine or a little ingenuity. Both of these drinks are also pretty versatile and pair well with various added flavors.
So as you may have guessed by our breakdown, the main difference in these drinks is these drinks is the ratio of the ingredients. With these, the barista must achieve a perfect balance of milk to espresso to foam.
Both drinks have 1-2 shots of espresso (the second shot is more common in America because they generally use bigger cups). However, a latte will have more steamed milk, which is mixed into the espresso. Whereas, a cappuccino will have more foam and less milk, and the milk is not mixed, giving you defined layers.
For this reason, a cappuccino is going to have a significantly stronger espresso flavor, both because it’s less mixed and it is less diluted by the steamed milk overall. It’s also going to be crisper due to the defined layers and lighter foam.
