What is Dutch Bros Cocomo?
Cocomo is a water-based coconut beverage that’s been around since the ’60s. It’s actually made by Dutch Bros, which is a chain of coffee shops based in Oregon.
Cocomo is made from coconut water and a ton of other ingredients. It’s sweetened with cane sugar and has no artificial flavors or colors. Cocomo comes in three flavors: Orange Mango, Strawberry Banana, and Pineapple Coconut. Cocomo is only available at Dutch Bros locations, so if you’re in Oregon or Washington and want to try it out, you’ll have to make a trip there!
Ingredients:
- 2 shots of espresso (or 1/2 cup of strong brewed coffee)
- 1 cup of coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Whipped cream
- Chocolate syrup
- Shredded coconut (optional)
how to make Dutch bros cocomo at home
- Start by brewing 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can substitute with 1/2 cup of strong brewed coffee.
- In a small saucepan, heat up the coconut milk over medium heat until it’s hot but not boiling.
- In a blender, combine the hot coconut milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the blended mixture into a large coffee mug.
- Add the espresso shots to the mug and stir well to combine.
- Top the drink with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and shredded coconut (if using).
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips:
- In this recipe, you can use any milk, but coconut milk gives the drink a rich and creamy texture that pairs perfectly with the chocolate and espresso flavors.
- If you prefer your coffee sweeter, you can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
- To make a kid-friendly version of this drink, omit the espresso shots and serve it as a hot chocolate with coconut flavor.
- You can also make a cold version of this drink by blending all the ingredients with ice instead of hot coconut milk. Just remember to adjust the amount of sugar, as cold drinks tend to taste less sweet.
Storage
Storing Dutch Bros Cocomo is simple. We recommend storing it in a cool, dry place. You can also store it in the freezer if you want to keep it longer than 2 weeks.
If you’re going on a road trip or taking your Cocomo while traveling, leave enough room in your cooler for it!
Health benefits
Cocomo is a drink that has gained a lot of attention in recent years. Not only is it delicious, but it is also known to have many health benefits.
One of the most important things about this drink is that it is made from coconuts. Coconuts contain many nutrients and vitamins which are essential for the body. These include calcium, potassium, iron, zinc and magnesium. In addition to these nutrients, cocomo has high amounts of protein as well. This makes it an excellent choice for anyone looking to add more protein into their diet without adding extra fat or calories.
Another benefit of cocomo is its ability to help with weight loss. This can be attributed to its high levels of fiber and antioxidants, which aid digestion and prevent cancerous cells from growing in your body.
Cocomo also helps improve brain function by providing nutrients like Vitamin B6, which boosts serotonin levels, thereby reducing stress levels too!
