Mint Mocha Tips and Tricks

• You can use any milk you wish, dairy or dairy free both work. Almond Milk works really well with this recipe.
• If you want to make a skinny version, use a lower fat milk (1 or 2%) and replace the sugar with your sweetener of choice.
• You can have a play around with amounts- maybe you like more or less sugar or cocoa, more coffee etc. Try different ratios til you find what you like.
• This recipe is delicious served hot or you could leave it to cool, throw some ice in and serve it as a refreshing iced coffee when the weather warms up. Find out more about making amazing iced coffees in our how to make iced coffees blog post.
• You could try using white chocolate if you prefer. Both kinds mix well with mint!
