MOCAFE Frappe, Tins (Mexican Spiced Ground Chocolate, 14 Ounce (Pack of 4))

Used to get this in Cost Plus and some other stores but they changed their distribution and for some weird reason you can only get this online now. But that’s OK because this is simply the best hot chocolate mix out there in my opinion. It’s got a really nice cinnamon spiciness to it and rich cocoa flavors. Plus it’s not as sweet as other hot chocolate mixes. I can’t drink milk anymore, but I love it with warm soy milk. Fantastic on a chilly night. Don’t be put off by having to buy four. It lasts a while and you can give a can or two away as a gift. Mmmmm, yummy!

We put a half teaspoon to a full teaspoon in every cup of coffee at home as a flavor enhancement. We use less if adding sweetener, more if skipping sweetener. This product has the perfect balance of chocolate to cinnamon, and brings out all the right tones in our french press light roast coffee. The product ships with a gigantic scoop, but we threw that out. A little goes a long way, and one of these canisters lasts a couple of months in our house (one pot of coffee a day). Can't recommend this enough!

Overall, great hot chocolate and a nice alternative to conventional hot chocolate. I was looking for the cinnamon flavor in particular, but the vanilla, etc. is a nice touch. I did want to emphase three things:* It is quite sweet; I'd advise dialing down the recommended portions on your first try.* Milk is definitely a much better choice than water; unlike most hot chocolates, I do not believe there is powdered milk in the mix.* My only gripe is that whatever emulsifier/thickener was added to the mix is quite pronounced... if insufficiently mixed you lose a lot of the powder to a congealed blob on the bottom.Other than that, it has a strong, interesting aroma and taste, and I recommend it.

I had the best Mocha at a coffee shop ever and I am a huge Mocha coffee snob. The barista was kind enough to share the type of chocolate she used! I was so excited when I found it on Amazon!!! It’s awesome!!!

My husband is not a coffee drinker and the nippy mornings left him a little jealous of my warm cup of coffee. Having just returned from a trip to Santa Fe where I had purchased it originally, I introduced him to the pleasures of morning hot chocolate. He was hooked!! Now for the other use, today , the day after Thanksgiving clean up we were at breakfast without any milk in the house, but an abundance of leftover decaf coffee from the celebration, his long face was brightened when I spooned in a bit of MOCAFE Mexican Spiced Chocolate into a cup of decaf. WOW! a new taste and he loved it!What else can I say, it's a hit around our house.

Great taste hot or cold, 'though it is pretty full of sugar. Does well for hot 'cocoa' with milk. My favorite is to blend it with ice, milk and plain yogurt - very refreshing on a hot afternoon. Also a great way to make mocha coffee.

Did like it compared to vanilla and moca flavor.

Imagine hot chocolate on a cold winter's day. Now imagine that same chocolate with a blend of spices to warm you further. That's what this is. I first had this at a museum in NYC and I was delighted to find out that it was available at Amazon, though honestly Amazon is a bit higher priced. That being said, a plane ticket to NYC would be even worse. It has a smooth blend of chocolate and spice which really leaves you a good flavor in your mouth. In addition, it seems to help settle upset stomachs in my home. Whether it's just people being psych'd out because it's chocolate, or the blend of spices. Give it a try, I hope you won't be disappointed.
