Frothy Peppermint Mocha

Frothy Peppermint Mocha
Frothy Peppermint Mocha

December 23, 2017 By //  by Reed

Nothing says winter quite like a peppermint mocha. It just screams to be paired with an oversized grey sweater and a crackling fire. Why can’t you order your peppermint mocha at Starbucks with a side of that?! Unfortunately you can’t order a side of comfy sweater, nor a healthy holiday beverage.

Take your wintery coffee drink up a notch with better ingredients that will do more for your body than the 54 grams of sugar you find in a medium peppermint mocha from Starbucks. Yeah that’s no joke. A can of coke has 39 grams of sugar. Point made.

The coconut oil in this recipe froths beautifully in the blender and will help to satiate you longer than a sugar bomb. If you really want to upgrade this recipe and possibly sip it for breakfast, try adding a scoop of collagen protein.

Though I can help you make a delicious and healthy holiday beverage I also, like Starbucks, can’t help you with the sweater. You’re on your own for that one 😉

Forthy Peppermint Mocha

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups of hot coffee
  • 1 Tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/8 tsp peppermint extract
  • 1 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • Splash of almond milk

Directions:

  1. Dump all ingredients into your blender.
  2. Blend until frothy.
