However, I’m incredibly happy to be pregnant so I’m taking this as one thing I cannot wait to guzzle come February 2021.
Yes, you can drink coffee and caffeine when pregnant (they recommend <200mg/day), but I just haven’t wanted it which is of course is so odd for me. Okay, so the sad news this year is that I do not have the taste for coffee thanks to being pregnant. So, I’ve been making this since last November and figured it was time to spill the beans and share with you my own Homemade Peppermint Mocha, are you ready?! Makes: Approx.I love a good Peppermint Mocha from Starbucks but I don’t always love having to pay for it and/or having to go out and get it. Whisk in cocoa powder, until there are no lumps.Heat milk in saucepan on medium heat, until hot, whisking occasionally to make sure you don’t burn it.Dark Cocoa Powder ( I used Hershey’s brand) Unsweetened,Vanilla Cashew Milk ( I used Silk brand), or other milk of choice Starbucks Copycat Peppermint Mocha- Ingredients: Can very easily double or triple the recipe as needed. It won’t taste exactly the same, but similar. You can try substituting the sugar syrup with 3 tb.If you’re vegan the sugar syrup you use may need to be an off brand, as the sugar used in Torani, is filtered through bone char.You can try doing this in the microwave, by heating your choice of milk for 1 minute to 1+1/2 minutes, and then by whisking in the rest of the ingredients, and heating again, until hot.Okay, but let’s talk about this drink for just a second! I have a few substitutions and recipe notes before I get into the recipe. This is a crazy time of year, there is no doubt of that, but even in the craziest times, if you look hard enough, I believe there can be moments of peace amongst all the insanity + chaos, and maybe…just maybe that makes it all worth it.

Whether it be laughing over something stupid with someone you love, baking Christmas cookies with Bing Crosby in the background, or simply sitting down with a Christmas movie in the background while you wrap Christmas gifts and sip on something warm+sweet. So, my hope for you, whomever you are that is reading this, is that you can find your own version of Christmas peace. It was absolutely perfect, and in that moment, I found the peace that is often talked about around this time of year, but seems to be so rarely found. The movie was an upbeat one, and somehow the wrapping went unbelievably well, and the drink tasted as if Mrs. But then last Saturday morning, I made my peppermint mocha, and I sat down to watch a Christmas movie while I wrapped some presents, and I felt at peace. Am I going to get all the presents I want to give in time? What should I get that one person in my life that has * literally* everything? What if they hate what I get? How many decorations in the house is too many? …Should the fire be smoking that much? O_O How am I going to wrap everything? And the questions go on and on…and on.
It’s only 13 days until Christmas, and I definitely caught the Christmas time panic. Get your friends, get your family, get your coworkers ( …or at least the ones you don’t secretly hate), get your significant other ( that is if you’re not going to die alone….if you are dying alone, get your cat, or dog…or something…I don’t know.I’ll sit with you…as long as I can bring my cat… 😉 ). Every year I make this drink, I alter the recipe a little more than I did the year before, and this year, I finally did it! 😀 I’m done. I’ve been on a mission to make a peppermint mocha that tastes just like the one from Starbucks for years. I honestly cannot believe how good this came out.
