The best iced white mocha

Jump to Recipe

I love getting a special coffee drink from my local coffee shop, but that can start getting a little spendy after awhile. I started making my own coffee drinks at home. Not only can I make them exactly how I like, but I’m also saving money by not going to the coffee shop every day.

This iced white white mocha is so delicious and one of my favorite coffee drinks. Everyone I’ve made it for absolutely loves it. Even people who don’t usually like coffee.

Tips for making the best iced white mocha

There are a few tricks to make it taste just as good, if not better, as a mocha you would get from a coffee shop.

Use a medium roast coffee. It has a smoother taste and is not as bitter as a darker roast.

Make it with whole milk or heavy whipped cream. You can use 2% milk or whatever you normally keep on hand, but whole milk gives it that rich delicious taste. And cream makes it taste ah-MAZ-ing! Now that being said, I have found a way to make it “healthier” by using oat milk and collagen powder. It does taste slightly different, but I have gotten used to it and I am fine with it now. However, if you want that delicious coffee stand taste, I recommend using whole milk.

Use Ghirardelli White Chocolate Powder which you can find here. I’ve tried using white chocolate sauces and they are just not the same as white chocolate powder. It has the best white mocha taste and is the secret for making this coffee drink so delicious.

How to make it

To start, you will need a 4 oz shot of brewed coffee or espresso. Add 3 tablespoons of the white chocolate powder to the hot coffee. It works better to add the powder to hot coffee so the powder mixes in evenly and doesn’t clump up. If you want to use collagen powder, now is also the time to add it.

Fill a cup with ice, pour the coffee over the ice and then add milk to the top of the cup.

And there you go! A delicious iced white mocha that you can make and enjoy at home. Have fun playing around with the amounts and ingredients to perfect it to your liking. Sometimes I like to add a little caramel sauce for an extra kick of flavor. You could also try peppermint or raspberry sauce for something different.
