Spiced Peppermint Mocha
Let's get this holiday season started! This is the recipe that we shared on our News Channel 20 feature. It's super easy and so so so good. Perk up the party with a Peppermint Mocha (add some booze to take the edge off and help get through all of those awkward holiday moments;)
Process:
To a cup add:
- 2oz cream of choice - Any type of milk or cream will work, but we prefer half and half or Vanilla Nutpod for a dairy free option.
- 1/2 oz vanilla honey simple syrup (or plain honey and a few drops of vanilla extract)
- Froth until doubled in volume (Smart Owl Lean Mean Frothing Machine)
To your serving cup/mug add:
- 1 oz mocha honey ( or any chocolate sauce - ghirardelli is our fav)
- 6-8 oz Hot Brewed Smart Owl Coffee SPICED MOCHA ROSE
- Add 1 dropper full of Smart OWLchemy Red Drops
- Either add a few drops of peppermint extract -OR- 1oz peppermint schnapps for an added kick
- Stir

Garnish ideas:
- Fresh whipped cream

- Sprig of fresh mint
- Candycane
- All the Above!!!!!!!
