Total Time:10 minutes
Yield:1 serving 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1/2 cup Strong brewed coffee or 2 shots of espresso
2 tablespoons Chocolate syrup
1/4 teaspoon Peppermint extract (adjust to taste)
Whipped cream, for topping
Chocolate shavings or crushed peppermint candies, for garnish
Sugar or sweetener to taste (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Coffee: Brew a strong cup of coffee or prepare two shots of espresso. Freshly brewed coffee is always recommended for the best flavor.
Heat the Milk: In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it’s steaming but not boiling. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother to heat and froth the milk simultaneously. Frothing the milk will add a lovely, creamy texture to your latte.
Combine Ingredients: In a large mug, combine the hot coffee or espresso with the chocolate syrup and peppermint extract. Stir well until the chocolate syrup is fully dissolved.
Add Milk: Gently pour the heated milk into the mug, leaving some room at the top for whipped cream. If you frothed your milk, hold back the froth with a spoon while pouring the hot milk and then spoon the froth on top.
Top it Off: Generously top your Peppermint Mocha Latte with whipped cream.
Garnish: Sprinkle chocolate shavings or crushed peppermint candies over the whipped cream for an extra touch of festive flair.
Sweeten (Optional): If desired, add sugar or your preferred sweetener to taste. Stir well to combine.
Serve Immediately: Enjoy your homemade Peppermint Mocha Latte while it’s warm and delicious!
