It’s Day 2 of the 5 Days of Homemade Christmas Gifts. Today’s gift is a delicious holiday mocha coffee mix. It has a light spiced flavor, a yummy creamy, chocolaty taste and a hint of coffee. It is not sweet or overpowering so it’s easy to enjoy cup after cup!
Let’s get started!
Combine instant coffee, powdered coffee creamer, sugar, hot chocolate mix, cocoa powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir well.
We are using homemade hot chocolate mix, but you can use any hot chocolate mix you like.
Spoon into jars. We are using 500ml/pint size jars.
Place seal/ring on, jute or ribbon with label. This makes such a lovely gift. Perfect for any coffee lover!
If you’re keeping it for yourself, pour into any container, as you like. We are keeping a jar for ourself and we are leaving it in a canning jar!
To make a cup, put 1 to 2 tablespoons of mix into a mug of hot water or milk.
I put some half & half in a mug, then my daughter scooped two heaping tablespoons of mix into the half & half and then we added the boiling water and stirred well.
Top with whipped cream or any of your favorite coffee topper! We topped our holiday mocha with whipped cream and a meringue. So good!
