Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup strong coffee
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the water and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely, creating a simple syrup base.
- Sift the unsweetened cocoa powder and gradually whisk it in, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture becomes smooth and well combined.
- Pour in the strong brewed coffee and vanilla. Keep stirring to maintain a smooth consistency. Add a pinch of salt.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the syrup to thicken slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Once the mocha syrup reaches your desired consistency, remove it from heat and let it cool. Transfer the cooled mocha syrup into a clean, airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to a month.
