Mocha Espresso Coffee Mix

  • 1/2 cup instant coffee
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 cups instant dry milk powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered coffee creamer
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 cup instant vanilla or chocolate flavored pudding mix (optional)

Measure all of the ingredients into a clean, dry bowl. Use a fork to combine everything evenly. If you are ambitious, you can powder everything in a blender. I don’t always do this because I am lazy. You do get really impressive results from it though, and it is easier to do than one would expect. Transfer the mixture to a resealable container, or a pretty jar.

To Prepare: Place 2 tablespoons of Mocha Espresso powder in a small coffee cup. Add hot water to fill the cup (about 1/2 cup hot water.) If you are using a large coffee cup, increase the amount of Mocha Espresso powder you add. For instance, use 3 tablespoons to an average size coffee cup, (adding about 3/4 cup hot water). Stir well and serve.

No need to spend a fortune at the coffee shop, try some of my frugal drink recipes instead, like this toffee coffee mix for example.

    So I tried this, as I’m a big fan of those International coffees. I didn’t have regular creamer, only french vanilla. I skipped the cinnamon. It tastes exactly like a brownie. A bit too sweet for me, but perfect for my husband, who prefers coffee that tastes like dessert. Can’t wait to try other versions.

    I love you site! I just finished mixing the above ingredients with this change: I did not have cocoa on hand so used Hot Cocoa Mix instead, and cut back on the sugar to balance out the sweetness (1/4c. sugar 1/4c. hot cocoa mix) AND I used decaf instant coffee so I can use this as an evening drink. DElicious! Not too sweet with a nice creamy texture. Thanks so much for posting these recipes. I have tried Cafe Vienna too – love it! THANKS a Thousand times over ~~ Candus
