Where does the name cappuccino come from?
the Capuchin monkey
the Capuchin friars
the Capuchin bush
the Capuchin River
The name comes from the Capuchin friars, referring to the colour of their habits, and in this context referring to the colour of the beverage when milk is added in small portion to dark, brewed coffee. The physical appearance of a modern cappuccino with espresso créma and steamed milk is a result of a long evolution of the drink.
