COFFEE MOCHA



Coffee mocha is one of the best versions of coffee I like. This is also a favorite of many. When you are new to coffee then this is the best coffee to start with. Coffee latte with a part of chocolate or cocoa makes the coffee mocha. Latte in Italian means milk. Coffee latte is one part of brewed coffee in 3 parts of milk. This is what most of the Indians take every day. On the other hand one part of coffee to four parts of milk is called “coffee Macchiato”. Coffee mocha can either be hot or cold. I like the cold coffee mocha and I present the same recipe here.   
INGREDIENTS
  • Instant coffee powder                  1tsp
  • Cold whole milk                             1 cup
  • Sugar                                              1 Tsp
  • Whipping cream                             1 Tsp+1 Tsp
  • Chocolate syrup                             3 Tsp
  • Chocolate Shavings                        1 tsp
PROCEDURE
In a tall glass pour some chocolate syrup along the inside edges and chill this glass in a refrigerator for at least 20 minutes. The chocolate syrup cools and become hard and this way you can design a glass without the design melting away into the coffee mocha.  
In a blender add the Very cold milk, coffee powder, sugar, 1 table spoons of whipping cream, chocolate syrup. Blend all the ingredients till all are well incorporated and the mixture turns frothy. Now pour the coffee mocha into the chilled glass. Top it with a spoonful of whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
TIPS
  • If you do not have the  instant chocolate syrup make the chocolate syrup using the plain chocolate bars and a spoonful of whole milk. In a double boiler add the chocolate pieces and the milk and heat for 3 minutes. Your syrup is ready. Alternatively microwave the chocolate and milk for one minute and the syrup is ready.
  • Chocolate shavings can be made by grating the frozen chocolate.
  • If excess whipping cream is used frothy coffee mocha is not attained, so use less amount.
  • Dark chocolate or white chocolate can also be used to suite your taste.
