Mocha Latte Shortcut

Ingredients

• Freshly brewed hot coffee

• 1–2 tablespoons hot cocoa mix (your favorite flavor)

• Splash of milk or cream

• Optional: pinch of cinnamon or chili powder for a Mexican mocha twist

Instructions

1. Brew your coffee:
   Prepare a cup of hot coffee as you normally would—drip, French press, or espresso all work.

2. Add cocoa mix:
   While the coffee is still hot, stir in 1–2 tablespoons of hot cocoa mix. Keep stirring until it fully dissolves and the coffee becomes rich and chocolatey.

3. Add milk or cream:
   Pour in a splash of milk, half-and-half, or your preferred creamer to give it a smooth, latte-like finish. Add more or less depending on how creamy you want it.

4. Customize the flavor (optional):

   • Add a pinch of cinnamon for warmth.

   • Add a tiny pinch of chili powder for a bold Mexican mocha-inspired kick.

   • Top with whipped cream if you want it extra indulgent.

5. Serve:
   Stir once more and enjoy immediately.
