In reply to Resa. The butter adds fat which makes it rich and creamy. It also helps to safely disperse the peppermint essential oil if using. You can use MCT or coconut oil instead if preferred.

This is such a delicious recipe! Thank you Katie! My husband wanted run to our local coffee shop to purchase a peppermint mocha. I quickly searched your recipes and told him I’d make him one at home. He loved it! And it’s so much healthier for him! I didn’t have liquid peppermint stevia, but used 1/4 tsp. powdered and 2 drops of our peppermint essential oil. Then followed the rest of the recipe exactly as you posted. So Delicious!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for providing this healthy option for a cozy winter drink.

Hello, this sounds delish!! I don’t have any stevia drops – could I use Pyure instead? Thanks for the recipe and Merry Christmas!

Would Ghee work in place of butter? ?

Thanks for given this mocha coffee recipe. I like only espresso coffee. It is good for me. I love this smell too much. It is really energetic for me.

In reply to Tamara. I'm very cautious about using essential oils internally for kids...

Hi! Is peppermint essential oil safe for children to consume? I came across a recipe for buttermints calling for 1 cup butter, 3 Tbsp honey and 10-12 drops therapeutic grade peppermint essential oil.

Peppermint mochas are my weakness during winter so I am SO happy to have found this recipe. I’m curious… why can pregnant women not take the peppermint essential oils?

In reply to Janna Thezier. Some sources say it can cause early contractions and it can affect milk supply when nursing

Can you explain the no peppermint oil while nursing? Is it ok in homemade toothpaste?

I made a quick variation of this today, coffee, butter, coconut oil and agave nectar (can’t stand stevia). I don’t like mocha either but I use cocoa powder in smoothies. No peppermint for me as I’m nursing. Loved it! Yum! Tasted a bit like a latte.

This is a lot like my peppermint mocha recipe only I use maple syrup to sweeten (not a fan of stevia).
