The consumption of Coffee in Europe was largely based on the traditional
Muslim preparation of the drink. This consisted of boiling the mixture
of roasted coffee powder, sugar and water.
However, since 1683 a new way of preparing and drinking coffee was
invented. Cappuccino was invented and made from espresso, the precisely
steamed and frothed fresh milk. The name cappuccino dates back to the
Capuchin order of friars in the mid-1500’s. It was named after because
the color of the espresso mixed with frothed milk was similar to the
color of the Capuchin robe.
The Capuchin Franciscan Friars were founded in Italy in 1536 with the
desire to return to a closer living of the rule of St Francis of Assisi.
‘Cappuccinos’ first popped up as the ‘Kapuziner’ in Viennese coffee
houses in the 1700s. It became popular when in 1850 when Austrian
officers ordered their "Kapuziner" coffee in Milan.
