What's the best way to make a mocha?
Asked by Lindsay L.
Topics: mocha, selecting coffee
Making the perfect homemade mocha is one part recipe and two parts quality ingredients. In this case, freshly roasted coffee and artisan chocolates vs. the cheap sugary stuff. Here's a quick recipe. You can read my full post for recommendations on ingredients and fun variations: Making a Mocha.
Simple Mocha Recipe
-1 cup of brewed coffee
-4 tablespoons of your favorite chocolate bar shavings or cocoa powder (roughly 1/4 cup)
-1/2 cup of cream or milk
*You can make this work with any amount of milk or chocolate as long as you keep it roughly 2 parts milk to 1 part chocolate.
Directions:
Brew 8 oz. of coffee with your regular brew method. Add your chocolate into your milk and heat it up slowly using a double broiler or microwave. If melting in a microwave, heat the mixture for 30 second intervals and stir, until creamy and fully combined.
