“What kind of coffee do cops drink?”/“Coppicino.”

“Coppuccino” (cop + cappuccino) is a portmanteau word that was posted on Twitter on May 15, 2013. “What did the cop get from Starbucks? A coppuccino” was posted on Twitter on April 2, 2014.
   
A riddle using a slightly different spelling was posted on Twitter on December 1, 2017:
 
Q: What kind of coffee do cops drink?
A: Coppicino.

 
           
Wikipedia: Cappuccino
A cappuccino (/ˌkæpʊˈtʃiːnoʊ/; Italian pronunciation: [kapputˈtʃiːno]) italian plural cappuccini, is an Italian coffee drink that is traditionally prepared with double espresso, and steamed milk foam.
 
Variations of the drink involve the use of cream instead of milk, and flavoring with cinnamon or chocolate powder. It is typically smaller in volume than a caffè latte, with a thicker layer of micro foam.
