Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup strong brewed espresso or strong coffee, chilled
  • 1 cup plant-based oat milk or almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (natural) or agave syrup (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent (optional)
  • Plant-based whipped cream (optional) for topping

Instructions

  1. Brew and Chill Your Coffee: Start by brewing a strong cup of espresso or coffee and let it cool completely in the fridge. This step is crucial to keep your frappe icy without melting the ice cubes too quickly.
  2. Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the chilled coffee, plant-based milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, natural sweetener, natural vanilla extract, and ice cubes. If using, add the natural gelling agent here. Blend until smooth and creamy, with no large ice chunks.
  3. Taste and Adjust: Give your frappe a quick taste test. Add more sweetener or cocoa powder as desired and blend again briefly to incorporate any changes.
  4. Serve and Garnish: Pour your mocha frappe into a tall glass. Top with a swirl of plant-based whipped cream if you like, then enjoy right away for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use strong coffee to achieve authentic bold mocha flavor.
  • Keep coffee and plant-based milk chilled to prevent dilution.
  • Add a small amount of natural gelling agent to lock in creaminess.
  • Blend thoroughly to ensure consistent flavor and smooth texture.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually to suit your taste.
  • Brighten with dark chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or cinnamon on whipped cream.
  • Pair with toasted almond biscotti or fresh berries for a delightful snack.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 24 hours; shake before serving.
  • Freeze leftover coffee separately if needed; frappe itself does not freeze well.
  • Gently reheat for a warm mocha experience, avoiding boiling to preserve texture.
