Are you a coffee lover? Have you ever tried coffee in your yogurt? Mocha Coffee Yogurt is easy to make. Nutritious, healthy and delicious. A must try!
Thick, creamy, and the perfect blend of coffee and chocolate. It’s like a double dose of coffee in the morning. The BEST coffee yogurt ever!
Going to the coffee shop and having a cafe mocha latte is one of my favourite things to do. Along with a slice of coffee cake too.
The chocolate and coffee flavour combination is so delicious. How about a Chocolate Milk Latte?
This easy recipe gives you a caffeine fix with the added health benefits from yogurt.
RECIPE and INSTRUCTIONS for this yogurt and coffee recipe are at the bottom of this post.
I even love adding coffee flavour in baking. Chewy Cookies are seriously addictive. Need a great gluten-free treat? Baked Chocolate Chile Mocha Donut are fun to make.
If you are a coffee lover, then the combination of coffee and chocolate in this chocolate latte is sure to please. The secret ingredient is hot chocolate milk.
Shopping List Ingredients
You only need 3 things!
- plain yogurt
- instant espresso powder
- cocoa powder
I got this idea after tasting a store-bought version. You will be amazed at how easy it is to make.
You can use any kind of yogurt you like. For this recipe I used Skyr. Greek yogurt would work well too. If you like, you could even use a vanilla flavoured too.
You can use any type of *(affiliate) instant espresso powder you like.
No problem. Decrease the amount of espresso and cocoa powders. Add to your individual container, mix and enjoy.
If you have ever tasted the Vietnamese yogurt coffee drink called Sua Chua Cafe, you know how delicious yogurt in coffee can be. Now, switch it up and put coffee in yogurt.
Making Mocha Coffee Yogurt At Home
This recipe is super easy to make.
- Measure all the ingredients into a bowl.
- Mix.
- Eat.
This is a quick and delicious way to enjoy coffee and yogurt for breakfast. Perfect for lunch, or a snack too.
You can easily adjust the mocha flavour by increasing or decreasing the amount of espresso powder and cocoa powder you use.
What Is Skyr?
A super thick, high protein, low-fat yogurt. Classed as a fresh sour milk cheese, it is made with skim milk.
A traditional Icelandic breakfast would be mixing equal amounts of Skyr and porridge (oatmeal). It can be mixed with fruit as a healthy dessert option. I have used it in place of sour cream too.
Add-Ins
Plain yogurt is tart for sure. I like it, but hubby does not. I find the vanilla flavoured is the perfect sweetness for me.
To make it sweeter you can add a bit of:
- honey
- maple syrup
- coconut sugar
- agave nectar
I find just the addition of FRESH BERRIES will also sweeten things up. You can add:
- strawberries
- blueberries
- raspberries
- blackberries
It doesn’t have to stop with berries. Other fruit will work too. Try some of these:
- bananas
- mango
- peaches
- nectarines
- pineapple
- apples
- pears
- fresh figs
If you haven’t been shopping, and fresh fruit is not in the house, you can use frozen fruit (although I find frozen is more tart). If that doesn’t work, add some:
- dried figs
- dates
- a bit of any type of fruit jam
Homemade granola is THE BEST!! Healthy Granola Cherry Almond Mocha recipe is the perfect topping here. It will add another level of delicious coffee flavour.
For another topping idea try this Easy Muesli Recipe. If you are in the holiday season Festive Crunchy Granola is a great choice.
Seriously I have eaten this coffee yogurt for breakfast, lunch, and as a snack. It also makes as a healthy dessert option. When healthy tastes this good, you can indulge all you like.
Start your morning with coffee in your yogurt. Mocha Coffee Yogurt is easy, healthy and delicious. Mix up a batch and have it all week long. Just scoop into a bowl, add some toppings and ENJOY!
Talking about delicious breakfast ideas, have you tried Smashed Avocado on Toast? I could eat this for any meal of the day.

Can’t wait to try this. I haven’t been able find my favorite Dannon coffee yogurt in the grocery stores for the last six weeks and I’ve a “longing” for my yogurt! I have some vanilla yogurt so may try to “doctor” it with these suggested ingredients. This sounds soooo promising!

I remember going absolutely bananas over mocha coffee yogurt years ago, but it was a store-bought brand and full of sugar. I love the idea of making it myself. I’m usually mowing down plain Greek yogurt, and I totally forgot about coffee yogurt over the years! Now I’m craving it 🙂
Gloria | Homemade & Yummy
I know right? Making it at home is so much better. I hope you give this recipe a try. I know you will love it.

Wow this was even better than it sounds. I would have NEVER thought to flip the cafe mocha and add the powdered espresso to the yogurt, but it makes prefect sense. I can’t wait to try out lots of different fruit combinations and a vanilla yogurt!

You will be hooked on this for sure. ENJOY!
