Easy Mocha Coffee

Coffee is a staple of any good camping trip, and having something beyond the standard campground coffee adds a special touch. We have this French press thermos we can brew our coffee in, but a percolator or boiling water over a coffee bag works, too, for this recipe. We're not camping right now (it's in the upper 80s and raining almost nonstop in our part of Florida at the moment) , but I got a hankering for one of my camping favorites - mocha coffee - and brewed some up for a lazy Saturday afternoon coffee break.

Step 1: Ingredients

Coffee - fresh brewed is best, but this kicks up reheated coffee, too!

2 teaspoons sugar (or to taste)

1 square bakers chocolate (I like Ghiardelli's Dark Chocolate Baking Bar, myself, but others prefer the sweeter milk chocolate)

half and half, or other creamer - to taste

Step 2: Add Sugar, Chocolate Square and Creamer

Really, it's just coffee with sugar and cream and the addition of a fantastic piece of chocolate!

Step 3: Stir and Enjoy!

It's awesome and really kick starts a morning in the campground, or an afternoon on a rainy day at home.

Cheers!
