Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 ml Strong brewed coffee or espresso
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 120 ml Whole milk
- 30 ml Heavy cream (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 5 pieces Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Instructions
Brew a strong cup of coffee or prepare espresso (about 60 ml). Set it aside to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, mix the unsweetened cocoa powder and granulated sugar. Add 1-2 tablespoons of the brewed coffee or hot water to the mixture and stir until it forms a smooth paste.
Pour the chocolate-coffee paste into a blender. Add the remaining brewed coffee, whole milk, heavy cream (if using), and ice cubes.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 20-30 seconds, or until smooth and frothy.
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar, if desired.
Pour the blended mixture into a tall glass.
Top with whipped cream, if desired, and drizzle chocolate syrup on top for extra indulgence. Sprinkle with a pinch of cocoa powder or shaved chocolate for a finishing touch.
Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon and enjoy your refreshing iced mocha cappuccino!
