Mocha Frost — Blended Cold Brew Frappe
Thick, frosty, and café-cool. Cold brew, cocoa, and milk blend into a smooth mocha — sweetened your way.
Yield: 1 large
Active: 5 min
Total: 5 min
Level: Easy
Blend short (10–12 sec) so the froth stays fluffy.
Method
- Load blender: 4 oz (120 ml) cold brew concentrate, 3 oz (90 ml) milk or oat, 1 oz (30 ml) chocolate syrup, and 1–1.5 cups ice (crushed). Optional: sweetener.
- Blend: 10–12 seconds until just smooth and thick; avoid over-blending.
- Finish: Pour into a chilled glass. Top with whipped cream and cocoa dust. Serve immediately.
Using cold brew concentrate keeps coffee flavor vivid after dilution from ice.
Sweetness Guide — Customize Your Cup
- Simple Syrup (1:1): clean baseline; start at ¼–½ oz (7–15 ml).
- Honey Syrup (1:1): floral warmth—great with dark chocolate notes.
- Demerara / Date: caramel depth; ½ oz (15 ml) tips it dessert-ward.
- Agave: smooth and quick-dissolving.
- Low/No-Sugar: monkfruit/erythritol—tiny amounts to avoid cooling aftertaste.
- Salt Hack: a micro pinch heightens chocolate flavor.
Pro Tips & Variations
