Description
One of my favorite holiday drinks and something that really gets me in the holiday spirit, is a warm cup of peppermint coffee, latte, or a mocha. I used to go for the dairy-free version at my local Starbucks, but then started brewing peppermint flavored coffee at home. This year, I decided I could do even better and make my own peppermint mocha at home. It is so easy and oh, so good. Plus it is much healthier for you.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brewed Coffee (hot Or Cold)
- 2 Tablespoons Carob, Cacao, Or Cocoa Powder
- 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- ½ teaspoons Peppermint Extract
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
Preparation
If needed, heat or chill your coffee. Add carob or cocoa powder, milk, peppermint, and honey to your blender. Blend until combined and frothy. Pour into your favorite mug and top with whipped cream, mini chocolate chips, and maybe a candy cane. If you are going for an iced version, place some ice in your favorite glass and pour the frothy coffee mixture over the ice. Add your toppings and enjoy.
