Can I use a different coffee than espresso?

Technically, you could, but I don't recommend it because you'd have to change the measurements. Espresso is very concentrated, which means that you can add a lot more milk and still taste the coffee. If you use drip coffee or cold brew, you'll have to add more of it with much less milk. With those changes, it'll be iced coffee with a splash of milk, rather than a latte.

Can I make the mocha hot?

Yes, absolutely! I prefer it iced (as I do all coffee drinks), so that's what I did here, but you can just leave out the ice and steam your milk to turn it into a hot mocha latte! You may want to adjust the amount of syrup depending on your taste. Iced drinks need more sugar than hot drinks.

Iced Raspberry Mocha

Recipe by Veronika Sykorova

If you've never tried raspberry syrup in your coffee, you've got to try this Iced Raspberry Mocha! It combines chocolate syrup with raspberry syrup, and it works so well with coffee! It's sweet, a little tangy, and extra chocolatey. Making your own syrup will give you the best flavor, and it's easier than you think! The latte is vegan and gluten-free too!

Instructions

Add the chocolate syrup, raspberry syrup, and a pinch of cinnamon if using to a small cup or heat-proof glass.
Pull two shots of espresso over the syrup and stir with a spoon until combined.
Fill a tall glass with ice and pour the oat milk over it. Optionally, you can froth your milk first.
Pour the espresso over the milk and ice, stir, and enjoy!

Notes

Chocolate simple syrup: If you don’t have syrup, you can also use 2 tsp cacao powder and 2-3 tsp cane sugar instead. If you’re using store-bought syrup, 1 tbsp may be enough because they tend to be sweeter. I highly recommend making my chocolate simple syrup; there’s no cooking required!

Chocolate Raspberry Syrup: I also have a Chocolate Raspberry Espresso Martini that has a recipe for a syrup that combines both, so you don’t have to make two separate syrups. If you use this syrup, add 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons.
