Ingredients
- 2 hots espresso Substitute: 2 ounces of strong dark coffee (1½ Tablespoons of instant coffee powder mixed with ¼ Cup of hot water.) Starbucks Dark Roast Espresso beans are available at many grocery stores and is what they use in-house for this drink. If you're using Nespresso, you'll need 2 capsules.
- 1 Cup whole milk Starbucks uses 2% Milk but I like full-fat milk myself. (UHT milk from a carton is OK) Substitute: oat milk, almond milk or plant-based milk of choice
- 4 Tablespoons white chocolate sauce See below on how to make. Substitute: shop bought white chocolate sauce. Use a good one such as Ghiradelli's.
- ½ Cup ice Use ice coffee cubes if you don't want your white chocolate mocha to be too diluted (if you us regular ice cubes, they'll water down your coffee when they melt.)
- Spritz of whipped cream Optional. Mix the whipped cream with vanilla syrup or sugar to make it like the one at Starbucks.
For the white chocolate sauce
- 4 Tablespoons white chocolate chunks Don't use chocolate chips as the stabilisers inside them prevent the chocolate from melting properly.
Instructions
- Brew the espresso or strong dark coffee (Some coffee makers have a Concentrated Brew function.) If you don't have an expresso machine, you can use instant espresso powder. Allow to cool
- If making your own chocolate sauce (see below), now is the time to do it whilst the coffee cools.
- Pour the white chocolate mocha sauce into the glass (which must have a tight fitting lid.) If you want, you can drizzle it on the bottom of the glass.
- Pour in the freshly made espresso, then the milk. Note: If using a Starbucks reusable cup, add the milk till it hits the top black line.
- Close the glass tightly. Shake vigorously, open the glass then add the ice.
- Optional: Top with sweetened whipped cream and more white chocolate syrup. You can also sprinkle some white chocolate curls on top and dust with cocoa or coffee powder.
For the white chocolate syrup
- If not using shop-bought white chocolate sauce, melt your white chocolate chunks in the microwave, blitzing it for 20 seconds at a time, then stirring, till all melted.
- Alternatively, you can melt it slowly by double boiling in a Bain Marie, ensuring no water enters the bowl (Where you place the chocolate in a bowl that is set on top of a boiling pot of water- note that the bottom of the bowl should be above the water and not immersed in it!)
Notes
- This decadent drink is also delicious on a winter's day- simply skip the ice and warm up the milk before pouring mixing with the espresso. (Make sure to heat the milk gently as you don't want it to curdle.)
- In Starbucks, there are 3 drink sizes: Tall, Grande and Venti which are 12, 16 and 24 oz respectively. The baristas at Starbucks use:
- Note: the nutritional information is an estimate automatically calculated using the WPRM recipe maker and I am not responsible for its veracity.
- Tall iced white chocolate mocha: 3 pumps of white chocolate sauce and 1 espresso
