My name is Mike Jones, and I'm a barista at Third Rail Coffee right by Washington Square Park in New York City. I'm going to teach you some basic coffee-making skills.
Alright I'm gonna show you how to make a Cafe Mocha. Now all this is, is basically a latte or cappuccino with chocolate in it. So you start off with a high quality cocoa. Something that's not too sweet is nice, but just a little bit of sugar so that the cocoa flavor mixes well with the espresso.
In a cafe environment we would take a lot of this cocoa powder and mix it with hot water and have syrup pre-made. But as far as making one drink its easy to just start off with the powder and add a little bit of hot water in there. And then stir it up to make a syrup. Then I'm actually gonna pull the espresso directly over the chocolate, stir it again and then pour just as if with a cappuccino or a latte. So I'm gonna get the shot ready, and the milk and then we'll pour.
Alright, so we pulled the shot right over the chocolate and we;re just gonna incorporate that together.
And then again, our into the same as with a latte. And we'll do a nice Tulip on this one. Alright, that's a Cafe Mocha.

For all of you whom don't have a machine to make these: I made mine with a bold coffee (from a coffee machine). I poured the coffee into my cup, added my homemade chocolate syrup (cocoa powder, water, sugar and a splash of vanilla, simmered to a syrup) to the hot coffee and stirred. Then I added my frothed half and half milk which I frothed with a frother sold by Amazon, which makes it just as frothy as you get in a coffee house. Turned out fantastic!! Great video. Thanks!!

Nice description. Makes me feel nostalgic when I think about your description xD

[@mwaseem6]

why is it i have to listen to jazz every time i watch someone making coffee? don't get me wrong, i like jazz but why is it the national anthem of Coffeeland?

[@mrvideogamevideos]

It fits a lot better than gangster rap or heavy metal.

[@reeewajfilms7808]

that's the first thing I hear when I walk into every single starbucks! Jazz everywhere.

[@KariAndJessi]

Lmao

[@angrymadcat]

because it makes you look smart and hipster

[@davisonfan4256]

YES! I totally agree with you. Instead, they should play death metal to stir up adrenaline

[@Skinnychelle48]

I think it’s because coffee soothes the soul and so does jazz! I love them both!

[@RidingAGrizzly]

Hi Mike, thanks a lot for the recipe. I ended up with a perfect concoction but, after a little addition of my own. I recommend adding a pinch of salt to the cocoa powder before adding the water to it. It removes the bitterness and makes the final product kind of subtle.

[@mohammedfaizanvlogger6202]

Hi mmike How are you Thanks a lot for the Recipe 👍

[@gamingwithsyt5535]

Then there are some people like me who like the bitterness 😅

I work in a cafe and had to make my first mocha without even knowing what one was, so I kinda made an informed guess and it worked, almost like this video but without a guitar in the background 😊

[@abdulrahmanaden6769]

Hey! Thanks so much for this video! It was so helpful! Now I can finally try to make my own mocha :) BTW it was so cool how you could make the tulip, you make it look so easy!

[@TheJergoswiler]

I love that painting above your machine.

[@Rocketblaster2008]

And it’s juuuust as easy as that friends....seriously you are an artist. My home-based barista skills mean I am somewhat satisfied with my sad mochas but need someone with your talent for a proper treat.

[@shadowbolt7698]

Im gonna try this out for sure!

[@lippa2105]

The cocoa powder is fine if you're in a hurry or on the go. But if you want a great quality cafe latte, use a real chocolate, like a Lindt bar or any chocolate that breaks into pieces. Pull your shot directly onto the chocolate and gently stir to incorporate. Pour in your steamed milk and enjoy.

[@2thevid]

Hi Mike.Thanks for this video. This is how I make a Mocha Cappuccino at home and I love the taste.

If you want an “Aztec” style or Mexican style mocha, add some cayenne powder and cinnamon to it. Very yummy.

That sounds pretty interesting. Definitely going to give it a try!

[@AuthenticInFashion]

I will do this now. Thx

[@harveyspecter1855]

@@latrinchera4709 nobody said you should get a commercial sized machine. A home machine costs between 100-200$. Delonghi dedica EC685 is a good one and I'm very satisfied with it. I just need a decent electric Burr grinder and I'm all set (I currently have a manual Burr grinder).

[@shayanmoosavi9139]

@@Kekmit I also have a moka pot and I love it :) It's actually stronger than espresso and it hits me within seconds. Espresso doesn't always do it but moka pot does it every time. French press is my favorite. It brings out all the coffee flavors and it's very rich in taste and has a very full body. I also want to try pour over and cold brew. I heard that they're amazing.
