@littlejoycoffee Day 9 of building a winter menu that doesn’t suck: Orange mocha (again) this time it’s hot! Orange mocha sauce recipe: 80g cocoa powder 120g dark brown sugar 240g water 100g 70% semi-sweet chocolate or chocolate chips 7g vanilla paste 10g orange extract Pinch of salt Whisk cocoa powder, sugar, and water over medium heat until smooth and glossy. Remove from heat, stir in chocolate until melted. Cool slightly, then add vanilla, orange extract, and salt. Bottle and chill for up to 2 weeks. Notes: We sometimes use fresh orange zest, but went with extract for this one because it packs a ton of orange flavor without tasting artificial. This recipe is slightly less sweet than some others out there. That’s because we like to put a lot of sauce in each drink without the entire drink getting too sweet. So if you want a sweeter sauce, just add 20-50g more sugar.
