Coconut Mocha Coffee Recipe (Hot Drink)

 

Ingredients:

1/2 oz Coconut Syrup

1 1/2 oz Thick Chocolate Syrup

Espresso (your choice of number of shots)

Milk

Whipped Cream

Chocolate Powder

 

How to Make a Coconut Mocha:

Find your favorite mug and pour in 1/2 oz Coconut Syrup and 1 1/2 oz Thick Chocolate Syrup. Add Espresso - one to two shots, depending on your taste. Stir to mix. Fill almost to the top with foamy, steamed Milk leaving just enough room for the Whipped Cream. For the finishing touch, sprinkle a little Chocolate Powder on top.


This combination is truly amazing! The rich and delicious chocolate flavor along with coconut makes this coffee beverage one you will want to put on your favorites list. So, if you crave chocolate and coconut...this is the perfect coffee drink for you!


A Healthier Coconut Mocha Coffee with Coconut Oil:

I would like to share a great tip with you. For those that are interested in their health, you can make this and other coffee drinks more beneficial. There has been so much in the news and on health shows, such as Dr. OZ, about coconut oil and health benefits that I decided to do some experimenting.

I use about 1 Tablespoon MCT Coconut oil or just plain coconut oil in place of the coconut syrup. Coconut oil helps with weightloss as well as treating ulcers. This is a great recipe and the substitution makes my coffee actually taste even better because it is not quite so sweet. It also gives it a more rich and creamy flavor. For more info on the specific health benefits of Coconut oil, just follow the link:

The Healthiest Coconut Mocha: Add fiber powder:

Another great health tip is to add unflavored soluble fiber powder to the Coconut mocha or any coffee beverage for that matter. I do this every morning. The first time I experimented I was surprised that it did not alter the taste at all! Now it has become part of my morning ritual. This is a painless method of getting additional fiber without any inconvenience.

What a great way to have coffee and drink to your health!

I love the fiber powder idea! I am into fitness and don't like fat and carbs. I use sugar free syrups, non-fat milk and skip the whipped cream. It still tastes delicious and I can have one every day without the guilt! It is also great to "sneak" more fiber into my diet. Thanks!
