Coffee Diaries // Almond Mocha

The perfect drink for a cozy, stormy day indoors. Enjoy!

ingredients:

1 tbsp agave nectar or organic sugar
3 tbsp water
10 organic dark chocolate chips
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 cup organic milk (I used almond milk)
2 shots espresso

Begin by stirring and melting together the nectar, water, chips, and extract in a sauce pan on the stove top. This will be your syrup. Add 1-3 tsp. of syrup, depending on how sweet you like your coffee, to your coffee mug. Next, with your espresso machine, steam the milk and add it to the mug as well. Lastly, pull two espresso shots. Stir lightly and serve! If you don't have an espresso machine, you can learn how to create this drink by following the steps that you can find in this previous coffee diaries post.
