Ingredients

1 cup cold coffee
¼ cup milk or to taste
2 TB Homemade chocolate syrup
5 ice cubes

Instructions

Make the coffee

Make a pot of coffee using your preferred method. Once brewed, let it cool. You can also use cold brew if you have it on hand.

Make the iced mocha

In a mason jar or your favorite cup, add 3-4 ice cubes. Pour the cold coffee over the ice. Pour in the milk. Add your homemade chocolate syrup (I like to count to 7 for a perfect amount, but you can adjust to your taste).
Put a lid on your mason jar and give it a good shake to combine everything. You can also stir really well with a long spoon.
Take a sip, sit back, relax and enjoy!

Notes

Adjust the sweetness: If you prefer your iced mocha on the less sweet side, you can reduce the amount of sugar in the homemade chocolate syrup or simply use less syrup when mixing.

If your coffee isn’t cold try one of these tricks to get it cold fast:

Brew a pot of coffee and pour over coffee ice cubes.
Brew a pot of double strength coffee and pour over regular ice cubes
Pour the hot coffee into a flat heat proof container (think 9x13 baking dish or glass casserole pan). Pop that into the freezer for 10-15 minutes and it will be cooled down. The larger surface area helps the coffee cool faster. Just don’t forget it’s in there!

If you aren't making this in a mason jar use a frother to mix everything first, then add the ice.
