A straightforward recipe for making a rich, coffee shop-style iced mocha at home using espresso or strong coffee.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots espresso or 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup or melted chocolate sauce
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 teaspoon sugar or sweetener (optional)
  • Ice cubes
  • Whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your espresso or strong coffee and let it cool slightly.
  2. In a glass, combine the chocolate syrup and the cooled coffee. Stir well until the chocolate is fully dissolved into the coffee.
  3. If using sugar or sweetener, add it now and stir until dissolved.
  4. Fill a tall glass completely with ice cubes.
  5. Pour the milk over the ice.
  6. Gently pour the chocolate-coffee mixture over the milk and ice. Stir briefly to combine.
  7. Top with whipped cream, if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use a homemade chocolate ganache instead of syrup.
  • If you use cold brew concentrate, reduce the amount of coffee slightly to maintain balance.
  • To make this vegan, use oat milk or almond milk.
  • For a salted caramel mocha, add a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture.
