So you’re already aware that a mocha is the best coffee drink ever right? Oh, you’re drinking one right now? Good on ya. But what can we do to improve on this beverage? Bigger cup? Yes, that is certainly one way. Upgrade to a higher percentage of chocolate? Say, 71%? Yes, that would do too. A delicious change for the better.

But lemme blow your mind and suggest something out of left field. What do you remember from childhood? No, not all that stuff, I’m talking about breakfast time. The sound of wooden chairs scrapping across the kitchen floor, a certain tablecloth, fighting with your siblings about which cereal to have? Always getting Kix or Life (non-cinnamon, bummer), or plain NON-frosted flakes (truly the worst disappointment possible). There was always a tastier cereal you never got.

Perhaps later in the day you heard friends talking about it, reminding you how unexciting your breakfast was, or saw it on a tv commercial (Old School!) I’m talking about any cereal that had those tiny, dehydrated marshmallows in it. No, not mini-marshmallows, but Swiss Miss style. Hard and dusty li’l guys that were sometimes multi-colored.

Here’s the thing…you’re an adult, and you can have them any. Time. You. Want! Jaw dropper!

So what is the best thing you can do to jazz up your mocha? Add cereal marshmallows to it! And thank you behemoth of commerce, now you TOO can have a bag of these in your cupboard.

You don’t have to have them around specifically for mochas either. You can just pop some in your mouth! Snack-style GO! Unbelievably tasty, childhood retro-wanting delicious. Drop some in a ziplock and bring ’em out next time with your pals.

Everyone you share them with will be enthralled with this snack-sensation and think you’re the coolest. Which of course you are, because you put these tasty little babies atop your mocha. And what is more sensationally delicious than that?
