Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Strong brewed coffee

- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Brew a strong cup of coffee and set it aside.

If desired, top with whipped cream and sprinkle with shredded coconut for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Simple Coconut Mocha!
