How to Make a Classic Iced Mocha Latte at Home

An iced mocha should be refreshing, rich, and effortlessly satisfying—not watered down or overly complicated to make. When you need an afternoon reset, crafting your own iced latte puts you in complete control of flavor, milk choice, and sweetness.

Because Caffè D’Vita Mocha Mix dissolves smoothly, you can craft a concentrated mocha base in seconds and pour it over ice. No expensive espresso machine, blender, or barista equipment required.

Quick Recipe Overview

Ratio: 4 tsp. Caffè D’Vita Mocha Mix dissolved in 2 oz warm water + 5 oz cold milk over ice.

Prep Time: 2 mins | Yield: 1 Serving (12 oz glass) | Difficulty: Effortless

What You’ll Need

  • 4 tsp. Caffè D’Vita Mocha Cappuccino Mix (adjust to taste)
  • 2 oz Warm water (hot enough to dissolve the mix)
  • 5 oz Cold milk of choice (Oat, Almond, Whole, or Coconut)
  • 1 cup Fresh ice cubes

Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. In a measuring cup or glass, stir 4 teaspoons of Caffè D’Vita Mocha Mix into 2 oz of warm water until smooth and fully dissolved.
  2. Fill a 12 oz to 16 oz glass to the top with fresh ice cubes and pour in 5 oz of your preferred cold milk.
  3. Pour your warm mocha concentrate over the iced milk. Stir thoroughly until cool, smooth, and fully integrated.

Pro Barista Tip: Dissolving your mix in just 2 oz of warm water before adding cold liquid and ice prevents clumping and guarantees a silky-smooth texture every single time.
