Banana Mocha Ice Cream

May 21, 2014

Double Dutch used to be my favorite ice cream growing up. Rocky Road followed suit. I wasn't crazy about straight vanilla until I was in my teenage years. Now, I'd prefer it over Double Dutch any day of the week. Rocky Road, and any chocolate-heavy ice cream, for that matter, will always be at the top of the list.

Mocha is a different story. Mocha, to me, is coffee with some cocoa in it. Coffee and chocolate will always go together like salt and pepper or peanut butter and jelly. These two flavors combined are phenomenal to me.

Ice cream cake is often served at birthdays and weddings.

However, you can devour it anytime you want. Especially now that you have this recipe in hand!

Caribou Coffee – Mocha

July 8, 2009

I'm sitting at a local Caribou Coffee waiting for a business associate to arrive. This morning I ordered a medium Mocha from the Espresso menu.

The medium Mocha is 2 shots of espresso, steamed milk, cocoa, whipped cream, and chocolate shavings. It is served with a chocolate covered espresso bean set on the cover. That's where I started today. Sometimes I save the espresso bean for the end, saving the best for last so to speak. Not today. I figure it's time to start with a bang, get some strong flavor, along with a bit of caffeine in a quick dose.
