Marocchino

Marocchino is a coffee drink created in Alessandria, Italy.

[1][2] Generally, the glass cup is first dusted with cocoa powder, then topped with milk froth and espresso, with a second dusting of cocoa on top.

In some regions of northern Italy, thick hot cocoa is added.

[3][4] In Alba, Piedmont, the home of the Italian chocolate giant Ferrero, Nutella is used.

The name marocchino (Italian for 'Moroccan') is derived from its colour, as marocchino was a type of light brown leather (see Morocco leather) used in the 1930s to make hair bands.
