Read on to learn how to make a mocha.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Milk
• Chocolate syrup
• Espresso
• Whipped cream
• 12 oz. mug

1. Place approximately 1 oz. of quality chocolate syrup in the bottom of a 12 oz. cup. You can purchase this syrup at chocolate retailers or any local coffee bar.

2. Brew espresso without an espresso machine by adding 1/4 cup of your favorite coffee to your coffee maker. Use 1/2 cup of cold water and brew as you normally would. The result will be slightly less than 1/2 cup of espresso.

3. Pour in one shot glass of brewed espresso. If you want you can add more than one, but most purchased mochas are traditionally made with one shot of espresso.

4. Fill your mug nearly to the top with steamed milk. While mocha espresso drinks do not generally incorporate foamed milk, you can foam yours by whipping vigorously if you desire.

5. Top off your espresso drink with a generous serving of whipped cream.

6. Drizzle your mocha espresso drink lightly with more chocolate syrup.

Tips & Warnings

• You can leave off the whipped cream and chocolate drizzles if you choose. Or, add chocolate shavings to create an even fancier espresso drink, perfect for entertaining.
