Peppermint Cappuccino Made With A Peppermint Pattie


Note From Mr Breakfast:

I'm happy to report that this actually works. It's not as good as a similar drink from Starbucks, etc. But for a fancy drink you can make in 40 seconds, it's great. I didn't read the directions fully and just melted a whole peppermint patty. It still worked fine.

I might suggest that the one thing that would have made this better would have been more milk - preferably steamed milk so you could get a little froth on top.
