The best part about making a Starbucks inspired drink at home is how customizable it is. So I decided I’d make mine using a mint simple syrup made with fresh mint leaves. Starbucks lists the ingredients of their peppermint syrup as Sugar, Water, Natural Flavor, Sodium Benzoate, Citric Acid. We’ll do something similar in our peppermint mocha recipe, except we’ll be using fresh mint. They add steamed milk, mocha sauce and peppermint flavored syrup and top it with whipped cream and dark chocolate curls. Starbucks makes their Peppermint Mocha with their signature espresso roast. Other than this small topping change, our peppermint mocha does it’s best to copy a Starbucks Peppermint Mocha – plus, we use fresh mint! What is in Starbucks Peppermint Mocha? If you’re curious to know, one of the main differences between the original and the one you’ll find in Starbucks locations today (and also in our copycat recipe!) is the addition of dark chocolate curls (we used mini chocolate chips) instead of red sprinkles (though we wouldn’t be opposed to using red sprinkles too from time to time!) It’s still available today during the holidays. Following the espresso and eggnog coffee drink, came the Peppermint Mocha in 2002. Starbucks’ line of holiday drinks has a history dating back to 1986, when the Eggnog Latte was first served.

Even before the Pumpkin Spice Latte craze, there was the Starbucks Peppermint Mocha.
