Ingredients
  

  • 2 tsp instant espresso powder e.g., Cafe Bustelo or Nescafe
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 cup milk
  • Whipped cream optional
  • Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • In a glass, dissolve 2 teaspoons of instant espresso powder in 1 cup of hot water to make espresso.
  • Add cocoa powder and sugar to the glass. Adjust the sugar quantity according to your sweetness preference. Stir well until the cocoa and sugar are fully dissolved.
  • In a saucepan, heat the milk until it's hot but not boiling. You can also use a microwave for this step.
  • Pour the hot milk into the coffee-cocoa mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
  • If you like, top your mocha with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.

Notes

If you don't have espresso powder, you can use instant coffee instead. Likewise, you can choose chocolate syrup instead of cocoa powder.
