Ingredients

3
lemons
1 cup
sugar
250 mL
½ cup
limoncello
125 mL
2 cups
freshly brewed espresso
500 mL
4 cups
milk
1 L
¼ tsp
ground cinnamon
1 mL

Method

Step 1

Using a vegetable peeler, carefully peel zest from lemons, avoiding the white pith (the pith is bitter). Combine lemon zest, sugar and 1 cup (250 mL) water in small saucepan; bring to a boil and cook about 5 min., until sugar dissolves and mixture is syrupy. Cool lemon syrup completely. Use immediately or cover and store (keeping lemon zest in mixture) in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.

Step 2

To make drinks, add 1 tbsp (15 mL) each lemon syrup and limoncello into each of 8 cappuccino cups. Finely chop 1 tsp (5 mL) lemon zest (from syrup); reserve for garnish.

Step 3

Heat milk in saucepan set over medium heat about 5 min., until steaming. Use a milk frother or whisk to whip until frothy. Divide espresso among the 8 cups; top with frothed milk. Garnish with chopped lemon zest and pinch of cinnamon.

Tips

For alcohol-free cappuccino, omit limoncello and add an additional 1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon syrup.
For 2 cups (500 mL) espresso, make in a large stove-top espresso maker with espresso powder. Or brew triple-strength drip coffee.
