Iced Mocha

I needed a pick me up this afternoon after returning from a long trip out of town the past five days. I decided an iced mocha would hit the spot. It did. 

Iced Mocha

1 T brown sugar

1 T cocoa powder

1 T skim milk

6 ice cubes

1 cup skim milk

4 oz. brewed espresso (I don't have espresso powder, so I brew 8 oz. water with 6 scoops coffee to make it stout)

In a small bowl, whisk together the first three ingredients to make a slurry. In a shaker, add the ice, chocolate slurry, milk and espresso. Shake hard for a good 30 seconds and pour into a glass for an afternoon pick me up.
