Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from Italian, cappuccino literally means 'little hood' or 'small cap', diminutive of cappuccio (hood), referring to the habit of the Capuchin friars whose robes featured a hood of a similar brown color. The term was adopted into English in the late 20th century alongside the global spread of Italian coffee culture.
