Mocha Preparation

1

Prepare Espresso

Brew one shot of espresso using your preferred method.

2

Heat the Milk

In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Alternatively, you can steam the milk using a milk frother.

3

Mix Cocoa and Sugar

In a small bowl, combine the cocoa powder and sugar. Add about 2 tablespoons of the hot milk to the cocoa mixture and stir to create a smooth paste.

4

Combine Ingredients

Pour the remaining hot milk into the cocoa paste and stir until well combined. Then, add the brewed espresso and vanilla extract, mixing well.

5

Serve

Pour the mocha into a mug. Top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
