  • Homemade Peppermint Mocha

    I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to make a peppermint mocha that wasn’t full of a lot of calories. Can I be honest? The ones from Starbucks are not my favorite. They add way too much chocolate. I would rather have the peppermint shine through. I love peppermint in my lattes so…
