The Caffè Mocha is the perfect fusion of Starbucks’ bold, full-bodied espresso and rich, bittersweet mocha sauce. Often called a “chocolate latte,” this iconic drink layers shots of espresso with mocha sauce and steamed milk, then crowns it with a swirl of sweetened whipped cream for that irresistible dessert-like finish.
It’s the ideal choice for anyone who loves the intensity of dark-roast coffee but wants a comforting, chocolatey twist. Sip it hot on a chilly day for cozy warmth, or go iced for a cool, refreshing indulgence. No wonder the Caffè Mocha has stayed a timeless favorite on the Starbucks menu for years!

Frequently Asked Questions

A classic Caffè Mocha is built with:

Finished with a generous topping of sweetened whipped cream

Starbucks Signature Espresso Roast shots

Bittersweet mocha sauce (rich chocolate flavor)

Steamed 2% milk

Yes, but only slightly. The mocha sauce contains a small amount of caffeine from the cocoa, so a Mocha typically has about 5–10 mg more caffeine than a standard Latte of the same size.

Yes, easily! Just ask to swap the 2% milk for any of our plant-based options: almondmilk, soymilk, oatmilk, or coconutmilk. Be sure to request “no whipped cream” since the standard one is dairy-based.

At Starbucks, they refer to the exact same drink! “Caffè Mocha” is the official menu name, but most customers and baristas simply say “Mocha” — both are totally correct.

Starbucks sometimes offers a Skinny Mocha Sauce (sugar-free version), but availability varies by location. To cut sugar, you can:

Add sugar-free vanilla syrup for extra flavor without the extra sugar

Ask for fewer pumps of mocha sauce

Request a lighter milk option

No — the mocha sauce is purely a chocolate-based syrup (no coffee in it). The coffee flavor and caffeine come entirely from the fresh espresso shots poured into the drink.
