Caffè mocha

Mocha, also known as a café mocha or mochaccino, is another popular coffee drink that originated in Italy. The coffee bean in Mocha typically comes from the port of Mocha, Yemen, which has a distinct chocolate flavor. Mocha includes a shot of espresso and some steamed milk with chocolate syrup or coco-powder. The drink is served with a topping of milk foam or whipped cream. Overall Mocha has a rich chocolaty but slightly bitter flavor.[1]

How to Make Mocha Coffee?

Making a Mocha is similar to that of a latte with some extra addition of ingredients such as chocolate syrup or cocoa powder. An ideal Mocha contains 1/3 ratio espresso, 1/3 ratio milk, and 1/3 chocolate syrup. Let me guide you step by step through the making of Mocha coffee.

  1. Brew one or two shots of espresso using your espresso machine[2], French press or drip coffee maker.
  2. Add some chocolate syrup or cocoa powder and stir until it gets dissolved.
  3. Pour the milk into a milk frother or steamer. You can use any milk as per your preference.
  4. Froth or steam the milk and pour it into your coffee mug, holding back some room for the topping.
  5. Slowly pour the mixture of espresso shot and chocolate syrup into the cup, allowing it to mix with the milk.
  6. Use a spoon to scoop the remaining foam on top of the espresso.
