Notes
- All nutrition facts are an estimate and will change with any substitutions.
- If you have an espresso machine, you can substitute a double shot (2 ounces) for the instant espresso powder and cold water. I recommend allowing the shot to come to room temperature or chilling it down in the fridge before using it in the mocktail recipe.
