Instructions
-
Steam the Milk: Begin by steaming the skim milk using the steamer attachment of your espresso maker. If you don’t own an espresso machine, don’t worry! You can simply heat the milk in the microwave or on the stovetop until it’s warm but not boiling.
-
Set Aside: Once the milk is steamed to your liking, set it aside to let the flavors settle.
-
Brew Espresso: While the milk is cooling slightly, brew two shots of your favorite espresso coffee. The rich and bold flavor of espresso will serve as the base for your mocha.
-
Combine Ingredients: Pour the freshly brewed espresso over 2 ounces of hot water and add in a scoop of Ovaltine (or your preferred chocolate powder). Stir briskly until the chocolate is fully dissolved and the mixture is well blended.
-
Pour and Mix: Gently pour the steamed milk over the espresso and chocolate mixture. The warm milk will create a creamy texture that blends perfectly with the coffee.
-
Enjoy: Lean back, take a moment to inhale the wonderful aroma, and savor each delightful sip of your Healthy Caffe Mocha. Ahhh, pure bliss!
