Espresso with steamed milk and a thick, airy layer of milk foam.
The McCafe Cappuccino has the same espresso as the latte but uses less steamed milk and a thicker cap of foam, so it tastes stronger and feels lighter. It is unsweetened unless you add a flavor.
It is a good choice if you like a classic coffeehouse drink without sugar.
