Lagniappe - Iced Mocha

I for one love an iced mocha. Please enjoy this anytime recipe that is somewhere in between the McCafe version (mine is not that sweet) and Starbuck's (mine is not that strong).

Iced Mocha Yield: 1 large
1/8 c chocolate syrup
1 heaping tsp. of instant espresso (Ferrara brand can be found at Fresh Market)
1/3 c. boiling water
1 1/2 cup of 1% milk or skim
ice (see tip)
16 oz plastic cup or glass



Pour chocolate syrup in your 16 oz. cup. Add heaping teaspoon of instant espresso powder and boiling water. Mix well.



Add milk and then the ice.


Enjoy with a pastry or on the go.


Tip: If you brew coffee normally, freeze the left over coffee in ice cube trays and use that ice for this drink. That way, when the ice melts, it won't dilute your mocha punch.
