I had a mocha here about 4 or more years ago and I remember my boyfriend and I talked about how good their coffee was for about 5 minutes after we left the stand. I was shocked to see they used chocolate milk rather than putting cocoa powder or syrup in it, and was pleased at the end of my cup, because I didn't see a huge glob of syrup that wasn't thoroughly stirred.
