Notes

Feel free to use any flavored syrup you like, such as caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, or strawberry. You can also make your own homemade chocolate syrup!
For an even stronger cup of coffee, freeze strongly brewed coffee in an ice cube tray and use coffee ice cubes to chill your coffee!
Use your favorite brewed coffee, or opt for a flavored coffee, such as hazelnut, vanilla, or caramel.
While I like to use whole milk in my coffee, you can use any milk you like, including plant milks.
For a peppermint mocha, add a few drops of peppermint extract and top with crushed-up candy cane pieces!
For a caramel mocha, add caramel syrup in place of (or in addition to) some of the chocolate syrup. Drizzle with caramel syrup!
for a white chocolate mocha, add some white chocolate sauce, such as Ghirardelli or Torani brand.
