Celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month with the Flavors of Ancient Central America

The Aztecs mixed cocoa and chilis together more than 5000 years ago in the heart of their empire in present-day Mexico City. Our Aztec Mocha recipe blends the ancient flavor of chilis with our new cinnamon- and vanilla-tinged Black Onyx Chocolate Sugar for a rich and spicy treat.

Ingredients

Makes two

SPCHAI.jpg

  • 12 ounces of brewed coffee

  • 1 tbsp of black onyx chocolate sugar

  • Cayenne pepper to taste (this is where it gets fun - but start with a pinch and add more as you like. We use about 1/4 tsp for two cups.)

  • Cream or nut milk (Cashew or oat milk adds the creaminess you want in a mocha if you’re dairy free)

Put it Together

Simply mix your ingredients together while the coffee is hot! Double the recipe and make a batch for friends, or dissolve the sugar and spice in a smidge of hot coffee and add to your cold brew for a chilled treat.

Experiment and enjoy!
