A recipe for Miller's Magic Mint Mocca

Recipes for both 'fresh' and 'instant' Mint Mocca.

I like to give the 'home made instant version' to family and friends for presents. One year, I was lucky enough to get many Nescafe (tm) coffee cups, so my present included two cups and about 12 servings of Miller's Magic Mint Mocca packaged in a festive Christmas tin. My recipes follows:

• 1 cup Nescafe (tm) Classic Instant Coffee¹
• 1 cup Hershey's (tm) Cocoa¹
• 1 1/2 cups powdered creamer
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar (or non-sugar substitute for diabetics and weight watchers).
• 1 tablespoon (crushed to a powder) dried mint leaves or include a bottle of mint schnapps or mint liqueur - with directions for a shot per cup.

¹ Note: Nescafe (tm) Classic and Hershey's (tm) Cocoa are the tradenames of the respective products. I highly recommend these products in this recipe. (No, I do not work for either company nor do I receive any reimbursement for this plug.)

• 1. Mix all the dry ingredients thoroughly.
• 2. Seal in air tight plastic bags. Quantity depends on your generosity. Figure 3 to 4 teaspoons per serving. About half a cup (dry) makes a nice 'small' present, a cup is a fair size, and two or more cups is quite generous.
• 3. Label with ingredients and directions. If possible, pack in a nice tin or bottle.

• Fresh hot brewed coffee
• 1 Tablespoon Hershey's (tm) Cocoa per cup
• Cream or Milk to taste
• Sugar (or non-sugar substitute for diabetics and weight watchers) to taste
• 1 shot (30 to 45 ccs) mint schnapps or mint liqueur
