Mocha is a truly yummy coffee drink that I normally associate with cold winters. Nevertheless, there are many iced mocha coffee drink recipes although mostly far too heavy for hot summer days. We were thinking about making it much lighter and my husband tried several recipes before eventually ending up with this simple and light yet fabulously aromatic iced mocha coffee drink recipe.

 


Makes: 2 mugs



INGREDIENTS:


- 1 tsp cinnamon


- 1 vanilla pod


- 1/2 tsp ground cloves


- 1/2 tsp allspice


- 1 heaped tsp cocoa powder


- 1/4 cup aromatic rum


- 2 1/2 cups water


- 1 1/2 heaped tsp finely ground coffee


- 2 cups cold 2% (semi-skimmed) milk


- 12 ice cubes (up to 1 inch wide)


- 1 apricot cut in half for decoration for two glasses


 


 


Method - how to make Iced Mocha Coffee:
