A caffè mocha (/ˈmɒkə/ MOK-ə or /ˈmoʊkə/ MOH-kə), also called mocaccino (Italian: [mokatˈtʃiːno]), is a chocolate-flavoured variant of caffè latte, commonly served warm or hot in a glass rather than a mug. Other commonly used spellings are mochaccino and also mochachino. The name is derived from the city of Mokha, Taiz Governorate, Yemen, which was one of the centres of early coffee trade. The name is sometimes shortened to just mocha.
