Starbucks Chile Mocha | Eat the Trend

Starbucks Chile Mocha is the newest drink in its Fall collection, and we've fallen in love with that rich, spicy kick. But once we perfected our own version of the secret spice blend, we can now enjoy this mocha whenever we want, no waiting in line needed!
Starbucks Chile Mocha
Inspired by Starbucks
1/4 teaspoon ancho chile powder
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup chocolate chunks
1/4 teaspoon spice mixture
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
2 tablespoons hot water
Whipped cream
In a small bowl, mix together ancho chile powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and granulated sugar. Set aside.
Into a mason jar with a lid, add chocolate chunks and 1/4 teaspoon of the spice mixture. Microwave uncovered for 30 to 45 seconds, or until the chocolate has melted slightly. Top with milk and put the lid on the jar. Shake for 60 seconds, or until the milk has foamed up and doubled in size. Remove the lid and microwave for an additional 30 to 45 seconds to heat up the milk.
Pour warmed, frothed milk over instant espresso powder mixed with hot water and garnish with whipped cream and a pinch of the spice mixture. Enjoy immediately.
