A Moka pot is the brand name of a stovetop espresso maker made by Bialetti Company.

Author’s note:
Correct me if I am wrong but too my knowledge this is not associated with the Mocha region of Yemen.

A Mocha is a coffee drink made from espresso, chocolate syrup and steamed milk. To make a Mocha, start with a shot or two of espresso (depending on taste), mix 1 oz of chocolate sauce with milk and steam. Top with whipping cream and chocolate sprinkles.

The Mocha name comes from the city of Mocha, a port city off the Red Sea coast of Yemen. The beans from this region are known for their relatively chocolate-y flavour.

Author’s note:
For the variety of independent cafes and chains, this is one drink that most can agree on the way it is made.
