Mocha or Hot Chocolate?

February 12, 2009

At King’s Corner Café, you can have your mocha with or without espresso! At the heart of our mocha lattes and “adult” hot chocolate is Ghirardelli Barista Chocolate Sauce. Did you know that cocoa beans are roasted just like coffee beans? Ghirardelli accepts only the highest-quality beans, rejecting over 40%, and roasts the beans in-house to ensure to ensure the company’s signature flavor profile is consistently maintained throughout all its products.

Café Mocha

Imagine blending rich, creamy hot chocolate with a shot or two of espresso — that’s exactly how a mocha is made! We start with Ghirardelli Barista Chocolate Sauce, add a shot or two of espresso and steamed milk. A mocha is then crowned with Cabot’s whipped cream, and a drizzle of Ghirardelli caramel sauce. Not a caramel fan? We’ll sprinkle Ghirardelli powdered chocolate on top instead.

“Adult” Hot Chocolate

We serve regular hot chocoate for the kids — Swiss Miss and hot water — but a real favorite is the decadent “adult” hot chocolate made with Ghirardelli Barista Chocolate Sauce and steamed whole milk. Just like the mocha described above, but without the espresso. The older kids love them too!

Add a Flavor Shot!

There’s only one thing better than a Cafe Mocha or Adult Hot Chocolate — that’s one with a flavor shot of amaretto, hazelnut, caramel, or frosted mint! At King’s Corner Café we use Monin all natural syrups and have several sugar-free varieties on hand.

Enjoy!

Woah. I’m totally in the mood for cocoa now. Yum! And flavor shots of amaretto too boot? What more could I ask for on a wintery night?

Great share and made me smile.
