Want to kick Monday off in an EPIC way? Try this chocolate and coffee mix

Trine Jensen-Burke

Never is a coffee so needed as on a Monday morning. And when you factor in that it, on top being Monday, also is dark, cold and miserable out, well; let’s just say we could all do with a pick-me-up.

Enter this chocolaty latte that will make Monday morning totally feel like a Saturday afternoon. Seriously; chocolate and coffee, possibly our two favorite things, all nicely combined. Talk about starting the week right!

All you need is

  • 1 Nespresso capsule of either Livanto, Volluto or Decaffeinato Grand Cru (to produce 40 ml,1.5 oz of Espresso coffee)
  • 50ml,1.8 oz of milk
  • 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder
  • Whipped cream

Preparation

  • Prepare 50 ml,2 oz of hot chocolate by mixing the hot milk with the cocoa powder
  • Sweeten the hot chocolate to taste
  • Place the cup of hot chocolate on your Nespresso machine grid and prepare an Espresso (40 ml,1.5 oz) directly into the cup
  • If you prefer, add a dash of whipped cream for a smoother finish.
