Cappuccino, a perfect balance between coffee and milk foam, represents a ritual capable of offering an intense sensory experience, with every sip. A drink that is a symbol of tradition and conviviality, whose origins seem to date back to Marco d'Aviano of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin who, way back in 1683, during a trip to Vienna, sweetened his coffee with steamed milk. From that moment on, the drink took the name of cappuccino, becoming famous throughout the world, until it became a true symbol of the Bel Paese.

Nespresso, always attentive to the tastes and preferences of its customers, wants to celebrate this special day by dedicating its new Aeroccino XL milk frother to cappuccino lovers, designed to offer an even richer and more versatile taste experience and to obtain the perfect milk foam for your milk and coffee recipes.
