Ingredients You'll Need
Starbucks Espresso Roast
The key to any Starbucks drink is their signature espresso roast, and the Valentine Cherry Mocha is no exception. You can purchase the Starbucks Espresso Roast beans at any Starbucks store or online. If you don't have an espresso machine at home, you can also use a stove-top espresso maker or a French press to make the espresso.
Chocolate Sauce
To create the rich and velvety chocolate flavor in the Valentine Cherry Mocha, you will need some high-quality chocolate sauce. You can use any brand of chocolate sauce, or if you're feeling adventurous, you can make your own with melted chocolate and heavy cream.
Cherry Syrup
The star ingredient in this drink is the cherry syrup, which adds a touch of sweetness and tartness to the mocha. You can easily make your own cherry syrup by simmering fresh or frozen cherries with sugar and water. Alternatively, you can purchase cherry syrup from a specialty store or online.
Steamed Milk
To give the Valentine Cherry Mocha its creamy and foamy texture, you will need some steamed milk. You can use regular milk or any plant-based milk of your choice. If you don't have a milk steamer, you can heat the milk on the stove or in the microwave, and then use a handheld frother to create the foam.
Whipped Cream and Chocolate Shavings
To top off your Valentine Cherry Mocha, you will need some whipped cream and chocolate shavings. You can make your own whipped cream by whipping heavy cream with sugar until stiff peaks form. For the chocolate shavings, you can use a vegetable peeler to shave a chocolate bar or use a grater.
How to Make It
Now that you have all the ingredients, it's time to put them together and create your own Valentine Cherry Mocha. Start by brewing your espresso and adding it to a cup. Then, add the chocolate sauce and cherry syrup to the cup and stir until well combined. Next, steam your milk and pour it over the espresso mixture. Top it off with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Voila! Your homemade Valentine Cherry Mocha is ready to be enjoyed.
Final Thoughts
With the Starbucks recipe card for the Valentine Cherry Mocha, you can impress your loved one with a delicious drink made with love. Don't forget to add some heart-shaped sprinkles or a cherry on top to make it extra special. Happy Valentine's Day!
