It’s a hot summer day. The afternoon slump is setting in you feel like you need. coffee. now! Before you load up the kids to get your favourite iced coffee drink at the local coffee shop consider making it at home.

You may even have all the ingredients in your kitchen. That iced mocha can be ready in less time than it takes to wrangle the kids and get them buckled in. I’ve got you  thinking right? 🙂

Turn on the sprinklers if you don’t live in California, send the kids out to play in the backyard, and take a few mommy moments. Even if you aren’t mom coffee breaks are lovely.

Prepare coffee in whatever system you use. I use this espresso percolator most of the time but I really like my french press as well.  Grab a bottle of chocolate syrup (or make your own), your favourite milk, water and some ice. That’s it. If you like it a little sweeter maple syrup tastes great in this iced mocha.

If the kids come back in and want a treat too, you can whip them up a quick batch of raw chocolate milk, or just stir homemade syrup into a glass of milk.

This real food iced mocha fits perfectly in a 24 oz mason jar like the one I used in the photo.  I like that it’s nice and portable. Plus it has a bit of that “coffee shop” feel. A dear friend made my cup for me but Traditional Cooking School has a tutorial on how to make one yourself.

Add in options:

Coffee Ice Cubes
Raw Whipped Cream
Dark Chocolate Syrup
Salted Caramel Sauce
Chocolate Whipped Cream

    I love how easy drinks like this are to make at home! I like to have an iced latte often in the summer using coffee ice cubes and the raw milk we get from a nearby farm. It’s so delightful and the perfect pick-me-up!

      I know! It’s fun to get a coffee out here and there when meeting with a friend but I prefer my own at home. Coffee ice cubed are the best! Now if only raw milk was easy for me to get…
