Is there anything better on a cold, dark day than a steaming hot mug of hot chocolate? If you think of something, let us know, but until then, this is a belief we’ll continue to stand by. We grew up drinking Swiss Miss, and while we’ll always have a soft spot for this mix, we’ve since discovered a few other brands that take hot chocolate to a whole new level. They’re delicious stirred into a mug of hot milk, but can also make for fun holiday treats when served inside hot chocolate bombs.
Serendipity Frrrozen Hot Chocolate Mix
Serendipity is a New York City restaurant known for serving decadent desserts, the most popular being oversized mugs of Frrrozen Hot Chocolate. While we might not all be able to make it to the Big Apple, we can enjoy this best-selling beverage from home now that the brand has launched a line of hot chocolate mixes. They’re available in chocolate, mocha, and white chocolate and can all be prepared hot or iced.
Williams Sonoma Classic Hot Chocolate
This mix is inspired by the rich, velvety hot chocolates often served at Parisian cafes. It’s made with chocolate shavings instead of powder, so it dissolves smoothly into hot milk or water to create an indulgent drink ideal for topping with a few marshmallows.
Jummy Hot Chocolate
This good-for-you hot chocolate mix is a great option for vegans or anyone with food intolerances. It’s dairy, gluten, and soy-free provided you prepare it in water or the proper milk alternatives, yet still has all of the rich chocolate flavor we look for in a mix.
