A reference figure for the drink, not a measurement of your cup.
Mocha preparation
- Add 20-30g of dark chocolate or sauce to the cup and pull a double espresso over it.
- Stir to dissolve the chocolate into the espresso.
- Steam 250ml of milk and pour to combine.
- Finish with foam, cocoa or shaved chocolate.
Balance is everything - too much chocolate buries the coffee. Use a real dark chocolate rather than sweet syrup for a grown-up cup.
