Chestnut Oat Cappuccino: Nutty, Creamy, and Festively Spiced

A comforting cappuccino where the smooth richness of chestnut meets velvety oat milk, topped with cozy spices and a playful gingerbread touch.

Ingredients

  • Chestnut paste – 10g
  • Coffee beans – 18g
  • Espresso – 36g
  • Oat milk – 250ml
  • Ground cinnamon – A small amount
  • Gingerbread man cookie – 1 slice

How to Make It

Step 1: Flavor the Base

Scoop 10g of chestnut paste into the bottom of your cup. This will add depth and a nutty sweetness to the drink.

Step 2: Brew the Espresso

Grind 18g of coffee beans and tamp them into a double cup portafilter. Extract 36g of espresso with your espresso machine and pour it into the cup, mixing well with the chestnut paste.

Step 3: Froth the Oat Milk

Steam 250ml of oat milk into a rich microfoam. Gently pour it from the center of the cup, letting it blend seamlessly with the espresso-chestnut base.

Step 4: Add the Finishing Touches

Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top for spice and warmth. Garnish with a gingerbread man cookie to add a festive crunch.
