Need your morning cup of java but don’t know how to make it taste good without lots of sugar or cream? Then this recipe is for you!

It is insanely delicious and you can’t beat this warm cozy mug of homemade mocha latte on a cold winter day.

This “Chocolate Latte” recipe has been my go-to for over a year now, so it’s way over-do that I share it with you! 

How to Make this Easy Mocha Latte at Home

This sugar-free homemade mocha latte is super easy to whip together. With only 5 ingredients (and a couple of optional ones) it takes just a minute or two to throw together. 

Mocha Latte Ingredients:

  1. Coconut Butter
  2. Cacao Powder
  3. Brewed coffee of your choice
  4. A dash of Sea Salt
  5. Maple Syrup (Omit if you are trying to keep it sugar-free)
  6. Cayenne Pepper (optional)
a cozy cup of coffee drizzled with chocolate

Put all of your ingredients for the homemade mocha latte in a blender and blend for 30-45 seconds. Voila!

To help speed up the process, throw all of the dry ingredients into the blender while you’re waiting for your coffee to brew. You have to wait for it to finish anyway, so it won’t take you any extra time to make this than it would for your normal cup of coffee.

Optional Ingredient 1: Extra Collagen 

Sometimes, I like to throw Vital Proteins Beef Gelatin in my Morning Latte for a little extra froth.

This also gives your latte a protein boost, and gelatin is great for your hair, skin, and nails. Please note that this will no longer be vegan if you add the beef gelatin. 

Optional Ingredient 2: Cayenne Pepper

I know the cayenne pepper may seem a bit out of place on that ingredient list, but it actually works really well with the other ingredients in this homemade mocha latte; spices and chocolate go together seamlessly.

Why I Love This Mocha Latte

There are so many reasons that this homemade Mocha Latte has been a staple in my morning routine. Aside from the fact that it’s decadent and delicious, I feel amazing when I drink this regularly.

The ingredients are affordable and easy to find, and the recipe is easily customizable to your preferences.

You could add ginger, peppermint oil, orange oil (if you like orange chocolate!), pumpkin spice, apple pie spice… literally anything.

Hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
