Instant Pumpkin Spice Mocha, The Perfect Chocolate Drink For Fall

Pumpkin spice  mocha  is the  perfect f drink to get  your  chocolate   and  coffee  fix in the  fall.  A sip of  this  is  like a  hug   from the   inside, warming  you   instantly.   This is a  make  ahead  mix  recipe  that  can  be added  to hot  milk  for  that  instant pick me up.

Pumpkin  spice latte returned  to  Starbucks  (YAY) a  few  weeks  back. On  Aug 28  (2018) to be  exact.  I have  friends   who  made  it a  point  to   wait  in line  to  get  that first shot of  fall flavors.  YES  it is a popular  thing  and NO I did  not   get  to  taste  it  that  day – or  for  quite a  few  more  days after that.

It is not that  I am  averse to these  flavors. I love  them –  cinnamon , ginger  nutmeg and  cloves  what is there  not to love!   I love to have  someone make  my morning  drink.   Most of  the mornings    I wake up to a  mean  cup of  hot  chai  that DH  brews.

Now I am  digressing, this  post is  about  coffee, chocolate   in a   drinkable form.

This  is  my version  to get  the fall  flavor  fix instantly.  Mix all  the  ingredients and   store in a  jar .  If  you  are making  a  larger  batch   make  sure  that  it   is  refrigerated.

So what goes  into it ?

• Instant Coffee Powder
• Unsweetened Cocoa
• Brown Sugar
• Pumpkin Spice

Add  1  tablespoon  per  cup of  hot  milk   and   shake  it up !

Isn’t  that a  simple  recipe ?

You could  add instant  milk powder  to the  mix   as  well.  But  I prefer to make  mine  with  hot milk.

Coffee

I use  instant  espresso powder  and  if  you  are  a baker    who loves  coffee  this is a  great  addition to  the pantry. It  does not  make the  greatest  of  coffees, but  is   absolutely delicious  in  cakes, pies  and   flavored  drinks.

If  you do not have  it   substitute  your  favorite instant  coffee  powder  or  omit  altogether  and  add  freshly brewed  espresso to  the   milk.

Pumpkin  Spice

Use  store  bought  pumpkin pie  spice  or  add  the  spices  as  in the   recipe.
