Hazelnut Mocha

Mochas are time-honored favorites. For hundreds of years, they have been used in coffee. Because coffee is frequently described as having chocolate notes, adorning a delicious iced coffee with mocha syrup seems only natural. Coffee is also frequently described as having nutty flavors, such as hazelnut. Hazelnut is a warm, earthy flavor that goes well with coffee. Everything from flavored syrups to creamers contains hazelnut. It can even be used to garnish whipped cream on top of blended coffee.

The combination of hazelnut, chocolate, and coffee makes this mocha one of the most popular nutty and rich coffee drinks. This beverage has been dubbed "Nutella coffee" because it tastes like a drinkable version of the nutty spread. To order a Hazelnut Mocha, simply request a classic mocha latte with two shots of hazelnut. The bitterness of the coffee is offset by the chocolate flavor, while the hazelnut flavor enhances the nutty flavor notes. Even though it is sweet, this drink retains some of the bitterness of the coffee, resulting in a subtle bittersweet finish. Consider it as a hot chocolate, but better.
