XIII.It was formed by men who wore with a tunic with brown hat and white belt to which Capuchinos told them.Capuchin coffee is named for the color of the habit used by these people, which is very similar to that of the drink and comes from the Italian word "Cappuccio" which means hood.
His story goes back to 1683, when a Capuchino friar traveled to Vienna on the orders of the Pope and decided to ask for a coffee in a cafeteria, but when he seemed it it seemed to him that he had a very bitter taste, so he asked the waiter to add a little drizzleof milk to sweeten it.At the moment when the waiter observed the color that coffee drinks he could not help relating it to the habit that the monk dressed and shouting "Capuchino!".From that moment this name began to be used.However, the modern capuchino we know today has evolved thanks to express coffee machines that heat the milk and produce foam.
