This is for Chocolate Lovers...
You'll adore the thick and comforting flavor of a Mexican Mocha. The recipe is not overly sweet, but it's still extremely delicious. Plus, the addition of coconut milk is a nice surprise to your taste buds.
If you prefer sweeter drinks then consider...
Adding a touch of honey or maple syrup to the hot milk to enhance the sweetness and flavor of the drink.
Ingredients You Will Need:
- 1 ounce Mexican chocolate or dark chocolate chopped
- 1 cup canned coconut milk (I love Trader Joe's Organic Coconut Milk)
- ½ cup strong brewed coffee (Try our Sunset Blend, our darkest roast)
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch cayenne pepper
Instructions:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine chopped chocolate and coconut milk. Stir to combine as you bring the milk to a light simmer. Remove from heat once all the chocolate has melted, and stir in the coffee, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and cayenne. Pour into cups and enjoy.
Ta Da! Happy Sipping.
