Make Your Own Starbucks Iced White Chocolate Mocha at Home

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until lightly simmering, about 5 mins.

Add the chocolate and let it melt. Keep the cream on low heat and simmer gently until the cream has thickened slightly (about 5 mins). Let it cool down in the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can store this in a squeeze bottle to garnish with before refrigeration.

Take the cream in a bowl and use a frother/stand mixer/hand mixer to turn it into whipped cream. The cream should have soft peaks.

You may add sweetener if desired.

Bring the milk to a gentle steam and simmer on low heat. Stir often to ensure it does not burn. Once steaming, add the chocolate and let it melt.

Add vanilla bean paste, mix well and taste and adjust for sweetness with your preferred sweetener.

Take the milk off the heat and let it cool while you boil about 4 tbsp (for 2 drinks) of water. While it is coming to a boil, add 2 tsp of instant coffee or espresso powder to your drink shaker.

Add half of the water to the shaker and let the coffee brew for 30 seconds.

Add half of the white chocolate milk and then 3-4 ice cubes.

Let the milk stop steaming and chill slightly before closing the lid of the drink shaker.

Shake well until everything is well mixed.

Add ice cubes to the serving glass, stain the sides of the glass with the white chocolate mocha sauce and pour in the drink. Repeat the same for the second portion and the remaining coffee and milk. Top with whipped cream and enjoy.
