QUESTION:

I want to make caffe mocha, but am not sure how to do it. Can you help?

ANSWER:

Like all coffee beverages, other than regular coffee, Caffé Mocha starts with a base of espresso. So I'm hoping you have an espresso machine.

Here's what goes into a Caffé Mocha:

Single shot of espresso
8 oz. hot milk
A teaspoon of chocolate powder or 7 grams of chocolate syrup
Top with real whipped cream.
Dust with quality chocolate powder.
Serve in a 12 oz. cup or mug.

And here is how you make it:

Add the coffee powder or syrup to the bottom of your mug. Make the espresso shot and pour it over the chocolate, and stir. Steam the milk and add the milk to the coffee and chocolate and then, finally, sprinkle a little coffee powder on top,

Yum yum!
