Take Time for Yourself With This Iced Mocha Latte Recipe!
I will be the first to admit that I’m not good at taking it easy.
It is something I am trying to work on because I know how important downtime is to our self-care.
One of my favorite ways to recharge is to take 15 minutes to myself and sip a cold mocha latte while reading a magazine.
It is amazing how just a few minutes to recharge can completely transform my day.
This Iced Mocha Latte Recipe is so simple to make - no barista experience required!
How to Make an Iced Mocha Latte
Step 1: Gather your ingredients.
You will need cooled coffee, cocoa powder, cashew milk (or any milk you choose), and Swerve confectioners sweetner.
Step 2: Blend the milk and powders.
Pour the milk in a tall container (I like to use a mason jar), and add the cocoa powder and Swerve. Using an immersion blender, process until smooth. You can also use a blender.
Step 3: Add the coffee.
Add the coffee to the jar and process until combined.
Step 4: Add ice and serve!
Place ice in glasses and pour the mixture over. Enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can this cold mocha latte be made ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can make it ahead of time and then re-blend when you are ready to serve, or you can store it in a mason jar and shake to combine.
I have a nut allergy. Can I use another milk?
Any milk works here! For a richer drink you can use canned coconut milk or half-and-half. Other options include hemp milk and regular milk.
Variations for this Iced Mocha Latte Recipe:
- Add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- For a creamier latte, add 3 tablespoons of coconut cream.
- You can substitute any sweetener you like - including maple syrup or honey.
- Add 1 tablespoon MCT oil and a scoop of collagen powder to turn this into breakfast.
- Add 2 drops good quality peppermint essential oil or a teaspoon of peppermint extract.
Tips & Tricks:
- Instead of using ice that can water down your drink, plan ahead and make coffee ice cubes! It is a great way to use leftover coffee, and also ensures that you get a bold coffee taste.
- This recipe makes two servings. If you are just making it for yourself you can go ahead and make both servings and store one in a mason jar in the fridge. Then when you are ready to enjoy simply shake, add ice if desired, and drink from the jar with a straw. (While I use paper straws for photos, for everyday use I like stainless reusable straws.)
