💁♀️ Extra Tips & Notes
- Use espresso for a stronger mocha punch (or decaf if chaos isn’t your vibe).
- Add a spoonful of nut butter for extra richness—peanut butter turns it into magic.
- Want it fluffier? Whip in chilled aquafaba for mousse that could levitate.
- Keep it classy in wine glasses or make it casual in a mug.
- Store in the fridge, but honestly, good luck not eating it all at once.
