What is Mocha?

Mocha is a chocolate-flavored coffee drink that is a popular item on café menus. It can also be called a mocha latte, mochaccino or a café mocha. But, whatever the name, the key ingredients are the same.  

Is mocha coffee or chocolate? It's both. A mocha drink must contain cocoa or chocolate syrup, sugar, espresso, and milk. It's the perfect sweet pick-me-up that adds a little joy to your mornings or afternoons.  

Chocolate and coffee complement each other in a harmonious dance of taste and aroma. The deep, robust notes of coffee intertwine with the velvety sweetness of chocolate, creating a delightful indulgence for the senses.
