Iced Chocolate Mocha

July 20, 2020 Leave a Comment

This iced chocolate mocha recipe is perfect for when you’re short on time, but still want a rich, flavourful coffee drink (without ever hitting up Starbucks)!

This recipe takes only three simple ingredients, which are,

  • espresso
  • milk (of your choice)
  • chocolate simple syrup

To make a chocolate simple syrup is easy! Plus it’s something you can make in advance with ingredients you have in your pantry, and store for later use.

You will need:

  • water
  • sugar
  • vanilla extract
  • cocoa powder

Recipes don’t get much more basic than this!

One time someone posted a side profile photo of me One time someone posted a side profile photo of me and I was mortified to see how I looked from the side.

From then on, I avoided photos unless I was absolutely certain I could control how I would look in them.

A beautiful thing I learned this past year is that I don’t owe the world perfect. None of us do. We don’t have to have perfectly curated feeds that only show our best angles. We can be real sometimes too.

Today I could’ve shared a photo of myself looking snatched, but I opted instead to share a photo of what I look like the other 98% of the time.

Both are cool. Both are me. Both are valid.
