How to make a mocha using Nespresso® pods
This is a question we get often and something that a lot of you suggested when we asked what type of pod you would like to see come out of our warehouse. But what if I told you that you already have everything you need to make your own Nespresso pod mocha?
What? I hear you say. Did they bring out a mocha pod already? Have they snuck it under our noses without telling us?
Not to worry – we would never deceive you in such a way.
All it takes to create a beautiful mocha with your Nespresso pod machine are two things:
A coffee pod and a hot chocolate pod.
But that’s not the same! I hear you cry. Why would I want to use two pods?
Well, let me tell you, there are a couple of reasons two pods are a lot better when making a mocha than one….
Flavour
The pinnacle, the most important aspect of a mocha – flavour!
How many times have you gotten a mocha from a café and found it to be too heavy on the coffee or too sweet with the chocolate? I know I had to memorize what my barista looked like, so I knew only to get a mocha when she was working.
Using two pods means you get the exact same extraction with each individual pod, every time.
Combining hot chocolate powder and coffee grinds could drastically interfere with this as the chocolate powder is soluble and coffee grinds aren’t. Not only would the pod not work properly, but the consistency would be largely dependent on where each product sat within the pod – something only god can control.
Using a coffee pod and a chocolate pod means you are getting the maximum amount of flavour from each Nespresso pod, consistently, every time.
Variety
Gone are the days where you have to ask baristas if they have any hazelnut, caramel, or mint syrup. Gone are the times where you finish off your coffee, only to get a mouthful of sickly-sweet flavouring that congealed on the bottom of your cup. Gone are the questions, the hassle and the “that’ll be an extra 50 cents”.
We have multiple flavours of Nespresso hot chocolate pods available on our website – right down to our sugar-free hot chocolate – imagine a mocha without the guilt!
