Ingredients
Mocha Chocolate Sauce
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar (granulated or coconut sugar)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup mocha sauce (homemade, from above)
Iced Mocha Drink
- 2 cups cold brew concentrate
- 1 cup cold milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
- Ice, as needed
Instructions
- Make the mocha chocolate sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar, honey, and cocoa powder. Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly to dissolve the cocoa powder completely. Once dissolved, bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow the sauce to cool completely. Store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Prepare the iced mochas: Pour a few tablespoons of the cooled mocha chocolate sauce into the bottom of each serving cup. Add ice on top of the sauce to chill the glass and beverage.
- Add cold brew concentrate: Pour 1 cup of cold brew coffee concentrate into each glass over the ice and chocolate sauce base.
- Top with milk: Add 1/2 cup of cold milk of your choice to each glass, adjusting the amount to your taste preference.
- Garnish and serve: Optionally, drizzle extra mocha chocolate sauce over the top for garnish and additional flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing iced mocha.
Notes
- The mocha chocolate sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a dairy-free option, use almond milk, oat milk, or any plant-based milk.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of mocha sauce or milk used.
- Use quality cold brew concentrate for best coffee flavor.
- You can double or triple the sauce recipe to have it ready for multiple servings.
