What You’ll Need
- 1 cup of freshly brewed coffee
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 cup of milk

Step 1: Brew a Strong Cup of Coffee
The first step in making a delicious mocha coffee is brewing a strong cup of coffee. Use your preferred brewing method, whether it’s a traditional coffee machine, a French press, or any other method of your choice. Make sure the coffee is fresh and has a rich flavor to complement the chocolatey goodness of the mocha.
Step 2: Mix in the Cocoa Powder and Sugar
In a small bowl, combine the cocoa powder and sugar. Mix them well until they are evenly incorporated. This mixture will add the perfect amount of sweetness and chocolate flavor to your mocha coffee. Adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste preferences.
Step 3: Heat the Milk
In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer. Stir the milk occasionally to prevent it from scorching. Heating the milk will ensure a warm and comforting drink.

Pour the brewed coffee into a mug and slowly whisk in the cocoa powder and sugar mixture. Stir until the cocoa powder and sugar are fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Next, slowly pour the heated milk into the coffee mixture, stirring gently to combine all the ingredients.
