Ingredients

2 to 3 tbsp (more if you want this extra sweet tasting) regular with sugar chocolate syrup, I love this one, Ghirardelli found in grocery stores and Amazon. Or sugar free, I like Hershey’s Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup found on Amazon and most grocery stores.
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, I used regular for this recipe not Dutch processed
2 espresso shots or 1/2 cup strong coffee, you can use decaf too
2 to 4 tbsp milk of choice, or leave out if you want a stronger beverageIce, make sure that ice is fresh, no little wimpy pieces left at the back of the freezer
fresh ice cubes

Instructions

Whisk together espresso or strong coffee, chocolate syrup, and cocoa powder in a heatproof mug or measuring cup. Fill glass up to the top or 3/4 full. Pour espresso/coffee mixture over the ice that’s in a tall glass or cup. Gently spoon in milk. You can mix the milk in or let sit on top of the drink and ease it’s way down. That's it! Enjoy!
