To think the new Starbucks Honey and Almond Hot Chocolate is better than sex

[CountryMummy1]

I'm sat here drinking one now....with the whipped cream.....and I don't care how many calories is in it!!!!

AtticusFinchIsMyFather Which is disgusting?

Doctortwo have you tried the mocha, tis lovely

524 calories

I need to try these xmas lattes next, they sound fab!

Having just had my 2nd child, still recovering from that and tired all the time pretty much everything is better than sex at the mo

I was a bit disappointed with it. Sorry! I'll stick with my hazelnut hot chocolate

RobinSparkles you're supposed to get chocolate whipped cream I think. Both times I had it it came with chocolate cream on. I bet they'd ran out.

YANBU

Having my third one on wed.

Gutted Costa aren't doing their Honeycomb Hot Chocolate this year.

FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR CALORIES?!? .

For a drink?! That's a third of my daily intake. Flippin' heck.

OMG, that sound amazing. There is a Starbucks five minutes from my work, I know where I'm going tomorrow lunchtime

I love a bit of hot chocolate porn.

Well, I preferred it when I didn't know how many calories it was.

But just look at it!

I had one on the back of this thread the other day and it was orrible I really wanted it to taste like toblerone but it was just sweet and sickly. I didn't have the cream thoug - maybe that would have cut through it a bit.

Try a Black Forest hot chocolate from Costa, with cream - you can thank me later!

Nah, see - I I really don't fancy that. Too sweet, too chocolatey, too sickly. Give me a double espresso any day.

There is nothing that Starbucks do that is better than Costa

Tax avoidance?

I'm not really a fan of Costa. I have tried a couple of their Christmas drinks, I think I've tried the gingerbread and cream latte and the sticky toffee latte and wasn't impressed. I also hate those stupid tall glasses.

Hmm, OP can I have a word please? After your post I duly went and bought one of these and was distinctly underwhelmed, back to Costa for me.

Had both on Friday. One was definitely better than the other and it wasn't the hot chocolate

Am liking the Costa drinks this year, but not in those stupid latte glasses. Can't recommend Caffe Nero at all. Now that was disappointing...

Is it very sweet?

As it has the equivalent of 15 teaspoons of sugar in then I guess it must be very sweet!

Luckily, since it has all those calories, it doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.

I wanted it to be lovely but it just tastes of powdery marzipan
