Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
How do I store this homemade mocha sauce?
To store, put your leftover white mocha syrup in an airtight container such as a mason jar or bottle with a tight seal. Place it in the fridge. It should be good for at least a week. Be sure to not leave it on the kitchen counter since it has dairy in it.
As a helpful tip: When transferring it from the saucepan to the jar, use a funnel for better aim and less mess. If you don't have a funnel, pour the syrup from the saucepan to a measuring cup first, then the jar. It will be much easier to handle this way.
How do I cook it if I don't want to use a microwave?
I get it, sometimes you want to avoid the waves a microwave emits to heat the food. Making this coffee syrup in a double boiler over a small saucepan is just as easy.
Fill a pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil. In a heat-safe glass bowl, put in all of your ingredients and place the bowl over the boiling pot. Stir as the white chocolate begins to melt and mix until everything is combined. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely in the bowl before transferring it to a bottle or jar.
Can I make a lighter-calorie version of the white chocolate mocha syrup recipe?
Unfortuantley, you need to use the ingredients listed here to get the right consistency.
I would suggest using a keto or low-sugar white chocolate bar instead of a regular one to save on some calories, but in the grand scheme of things, it will still be a sweet treat that contains some calories in it!
How can I make the syrup if I don't have sweetened condensed milk?
You can make a similar syrup using an altered simple syrup mixture of equal parts sugar and milk. Heat them together until the sugar is completely dissolved, and the milk mixture has started to reduce. Then mix in the white chocolate until melted and smooth.
Is there a dairy-free version of this white chocolate mocha syrup recipe?
Of course! You can make a non-dairy version by using non-dairy white chocolate and substituting the heavy cream with coconut cream, and coconut sweetened condensed coconut milk.
What can I use this white mocha sauce on?
In a delicious coffee drink, first and foremost. Combine it with shots of espresso, instant coffee, cold brew, or regular hot coffee and your favorite creamer. Here are a couple other creative ways to utilize your own white chocolate sauce:
- Turn your breakfast into a sweet treat by putting it on your pancakes, waffles, or French toast.
- Put it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream to create a white chocolate sundae.
- The next time you or the kids are craving a hot chocolate beverage in the winter, combine this with warm milk instead.
How much syrup should I use per coffee?
Typically, 2-3 tablespoons of syrup per 8-ounce cup of coffee is a good starting point. But adjust according to your taste preference.
