Pure monkey business!

“By visual analogy, the Capuchin monkey and the cappuccino style of coffee are both named after the shade of brown used in the Capuchin Monk habit.”

Monks are responsible for lots of food/beverages we enjoy. Beer and blue cheese cone to mind.

Cappuccino, pretzels, beer, brandy, all invented by Christian Monks.

Those monks sure know how to live!
