Freeze the espresso shots into ice cubes. You can also freeze very strong coffee if you don’t want to use espresso.
In a blender, combine the frozen coffee, sugar, milk and chocolate syrup.
Blend until smooth.
Drizzle a little chocolate syrup into the glass, then pour in the mocha frappe.
Top with whipped cream.
Notes
If you forgot or don’t want to freeze your espresso/coffee ahead, allow it to cool some after brewing (pop it in the refrigerator for a couple minutes). Then, follow the recipe but add 6-8 ice cubes per serving. Yes, this will dilute the coffee in your mocha frappe, but it will have a similar texture and consistency and will still be delicious.
If you like your mocha frappe less sweet and more on the coffee side of flavor, feel free to omit the sugar in this recipe. Sometimes the only sweetener I add is the chocolate syrup and I think it’s great.
You can easily change up the flavor of this frappe by using a different syrup like white chocolate or caramel.
If you’d like to make this dairy-free, you easily can by simply using a dairy-free milk and whipped cream.
