Blended Mocha Frappe-Style Drink

Xanthan gum is optional but explains the café texture: a tiny pinch keeps ice crystals and coffee from separating before the drink is finished. Freeze coffee into cubes so the mocha stays strong. Scratch mocha sauce supplies cocoa and sugar in one smooth ingredient, while milk keeps the blend spoonable but not icy.
