Once the almond milk and cocoa mixture is warm and smooth, remove it from the heat.
Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract to the saucepan, and stir well to combine.
Pour the brewed coffee into a large mug, followed by the cocoa-almond milk mixture. Stir gently to combine and create a creamy consistency.
Optional: Top with whipped coconut cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
Optional: Sprinkle with cocoa nibs or dark chocolate shavings for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy caffe mocha!
