2-2-2 DIET MOCHA
While trying to come up with a satisfying "snack" or dessert that fit the requirements of my low carb, low calorie, low fat diet (ugh, but I'm only on it for 3 weeks as a jumpstart), I invented this. (I've experimented often with do-it-yourself coffee mixes, and I think this is better than most.) I'm mostly putting this here to calculate the nutritional information. For cocoa, use the best you can find. Currently I'm using Ghirardelli Unsweetened Cocoa, from a 10 oz. can, sold in the baking section of Publix. My current sweetener is Sucaryl tablets (from Canada), and I use 2 tablets (easy to remember--that's why I tried these proportions). [Edit after publishing: When I found out the total carb count and realized it was too high due to the milk powder, I decided to wait until I go back to low-carbing and then use cream which has zero carbs. However, this is still quite low in calories, so many dieters should find it useful.]

Steps:
- Make around 35ml espresso using a coffee machine and pour into the base of your cup. Add the drinking chocolate and mix well until smooth.
- Steam the milk with the steamer attachment so that it has around 4-6cm of foam on top. Hold the jug so that the spout is about 3-4cm above the cup and pour the milk in steadily. As the volume within the cup increases, bring the jug as close to the surface of the drink as possible whilst aiming into the centre. Once the milk jug is almost touching the surface of the coffee, tilt to speed up the rate of pour. As you accelerate, the milk will hit the back of the cup and start naturally folding in on itself to create a pattern on the top.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Opt for organic, fair-trade coffee and dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. These ingredients will provide the best flavor and nutritional benefits.
- Moderate your intake: While the 2-2-2 diet can be a healthy way to lose weight, it's important to consume it in moderation. Limit yourself to one mocha smoothie per day and balance it with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
- Experiment with different flavors: The basic 2-2-2 diet mocha recipe is a great foundation, but you can customize it to your taste. Try adding different spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger, or experimenting with different types of milk or yogurt.
- Make it a complete meal: If you're having a 2-2-2 diet mocha for breakfast or lunch, add some protein, such as a scoop of protein powder, a boiled egg, or a handful of nuts, to make it a more filling and satisfying meal.
Conclusion:
The 2-2-2 diet mocha is a delicious and healthy way to start your day or refuel after a workout. It's packed with nutrients and antioxidants, and it can help you lose weight and improve your overall health. Just be sure to consume it in moderation and balance it with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
