Godiva Belgian Blends Dark Chocolate Mocha Review
This summer, Coca-Cola teamed with the delicious Godiva chocolatier. The product is branded under the Godiva name, rightfully so. I purchased all three versions they have out at the moment (Dark Chocolate Mocha, Milk Chocolate Mocha and French Vanilla Latte) and have first tried the Dark Chocolate Mocha.

I suppose you can have this hot or cold if you want to take the time to heat it. I would suspect that microwaving a bit may be best but I had mine cold.
At first taste, and I don’t want this to sound negative, it reminded me of a chocolate Yahoo beverage. I know, that’s not exactly what Godiva should taste like. But after a couple of sips, the rich chocolate taste that Godiva is famed for came through.
The texture is silky and probably a bit thinner than I would like but quite drinkable all the same.
Although there is coffee content in this beverage, I did not feel the caffeine. Given my caffeine addiction, I would imagine I wouldn’t be able to sense the caffeine content though. No matter, the drink is good. If you are expecting a bold, dark chocolate taste however, you’ll be disappointed. It does have a darker taste than the milk chocolate version, but it really does not impress me as being ‘dark’.
The finish is creamy and satisfying. I feel that 9.5 fl. oz. is plenty enough to savor the Godiva chocolate flavor and it be enough. It could be an addiction and I think I will infact buy more after the three first bottles are gone.
I do recommend that you try the Godiva Belgian Blends

It sounds so fabulously tempting. I think I just gained 10 pounds reading your review. I must see if it’s available at our local stores…
I got a ton of these for free from a local university.. They’re good!
I’d love to have a ton of them!
Thank you for stopping by.
Do you have a copycat recipe for this one yet? I absolutely love the Dark Chocolate Mocha! I also would love to have a ton of them.
I’m working on that Jamie
I’ll post it once I have it perfected. I like to attempt a copycat on my own before I reach for someone elses.
when you have the godiva dark chocolate recipe…I want it…They are hard to find here and I’d love to make my own.
I’m getting close. It is nearly there… just… something… something is missing from my recipe. I’ll get it up soon as I have it ‘right’
