Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Finely ground Turkish coffee
- 1 cup Cold water
- 1 teaspoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk or cream
- 1 pinch Ground cardamom
- 1 pinch Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Dark chocolate, finely chopped
Instructions
In a small Turkish coffee pot (cezve) or a small saucepan, combine the finely ground Turkish coffee, cold water, cocoa powder, sugar, ground cardamom, and ground cinnamon.
Stir the mixture gently until all the ingredients are well combined.
Place the pot over low heat and allow it to slowly heat up. Stir occasionally to dissolve the sugar and prevent the chocolate from sticking to the bottom.
Just before the mixture reaches a boil, add the finely chopped dark chocolate and stir to melt it completely.
As the coffee begins to froth and bubble (but before it boils), carefully remove the pot from the heat.
Pour the mocha into a small coffee cup, ensuring some of the frothy top is included.
Add milk or cream to taste, if desired, and give it a gentle stir.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a small cinnamon stick for decoration.
