What's In It
A single shot of Costa's Mocha Italia blend, pulled short and concentrated. Nothing added — the base that every other espresso-based drink on this menu is built from.
Sizes & Pricing
Available in Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large. The price above is for a Medium; Small and Large typically cost differently, but we haven’t independently confirmed the exact difference yet — check in-store or the Costa app for current size pricing.
Dairy-Free Options
Can be made with oat, soya or coconut milk (Costa’s guide doesn’t list an almond option) for a small surcharge, which we haven’t confirmed yet. See our Milk & Dairy Alternatives guide for the full list.
