See also the numerous coffee substitutes like chicory and roasted barley.

The original "Cafe mocha" was apparently just a variety of coffee bean that tasted sort of like hot chocolate - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mocha_coffee_bean . Depending on the roast, you can cold brew coffee to emphasize the chocolatey components as well.

Chicory "coffee" is lovely. I can't say it reminds me of coffee particularly, but it's a great option as a caffeine-free bitter drink.
