The simplest way to turn a cappuccino into a mocha cappuccino is to add chocolate syrup to the milk. The resulting drink is creamy, chocolatey, and full of bold espresso flavor. Delicious!
Pull two shots of espresso or make ½ cup of strong coffee.
Heat the milk. If your milk frother doesn’t have heating capabilities, heat the milk on the stove or in the microwave first. Then add the chocolate syrup to the warm milk.
Time to steam your chocolate milk! You can use your espresso machine’s steam wand, a whisk, or a shaken mason jar. You want the milk to double in size.
Pour the espresso into a mug and top with the steamed milk. Spoon the milk froth on last.
Sprinkle on cocoa powder (optional) and enjoy your mocha cappuccino!
