Deciphering the menu at your local coffee shop can be a bit challenging.
Even for the biggest coffee connoisseur, understanding how popular drinks like cappuccinos, lattes, and macchiatos differ in terms of ingredients, caffeine content, and nutritional value can be confusing.
This article takes a closer look at some of the key differences and similarities between cappuccinos, lattes, and macchiatos.

How they’re made
One of the key differences between these three caffeinated beverages is how they are made.
Cappuccino
A cappuccino is a popular coffee drink that’s made by topping a shot of espresso with steamed milk and milk foam.
Typically, it contains equal parts of each and is made up of about 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 foamed milk.
This gives the final product a creamy, rich, and smooth taste and texture.
Latte
The term “café latte” literally translates to “coffee milk.”
Although there is no standard recipe for making a latte, it generally involves adding steamed milk to a single shot of espresso.
In some cases, it’s also topped with a light layer of foam, and sugars or sweeteners may be mixed in as well.
Compared with the other beverages, lattes have a more mild, slightly sweet flavor, as they contain a greater proportion of steamed milk.
Macchiato
Traditionally, the macchiato is made by combining a shot of espresso with a small splash of milk.
Because the macchiato is usually made using just a small amount of milk, it has a much stronger flavor than other coffee drinks.
It’s also much smaller than other drinks, with a standard serving clocking in at just 37 ml.
