Mine is the starbucks hot chocolate powder that you can get in asda but am looking for others ideas. I am not really a fan of dark chocolate and sweeter the better.

Twinings Swiss style. Expensive but worth every penny in my view.

I just got the Starbucks tin in Morrisons but didn't like it. I have had Starbucks hot cocoa sachets from tk Maxx that tasted more like Starbucks hot chocolate so you may like that (if you can find it) but I only really like the hotel Chocolat ones that are made from grated chocolate or bettys or Charbonnel & Walker . Anything else tastes powdery to me.

A lot of people like Whittards but it's still powder and expensive for what it is

I have a velvetiser too which I enjoy.

I'm the opposite regarding sweetness.
I like a good cocoa powder with a tiny bit of sugar, full fat milk..obvs.

I used to work in an office where they sold a hot chocolate in a vending machine.

35p. Absolutely amazing.

NotImpossible · 11/03/2022 18:52

I use cocoa powder, milk and sugar. Can make it to my own taste then...

I like whittards 70% cocoa , made quite strong with full fat milk .

I mix the cocoa with a little cold milk , but you have to stir like buggery to get them to combined

Any hot chocolate with baileys and whipped cream!

SexPeopleLynn · 11/03/2022 19:06

My best at home chocolate is Hotel Chocolate salted caramel but made using my nespresso barista. It's amazing!!

This thread has some great hot chocolate locations too...

Green and blacks cocoa powder

The Twinings Swiss style. Currently on sale on Amazon at about £18 for a tray of 6 x 350g pots. I bought two trays, so have enough to get me through til next winter.

Philistine here - Ovaltine Hot Chocolate (just add hot water) but the pre-mix is with milk.
And whisk vigorously with a long handled spoon.
Great digestif after a half, or so, bottle of wine.

Hotel chocolate salted caramel. Needs nothing else

whumpthereitis · 11/03/2022 19:16

Sloane’s milk chocolate pearls.

I am so downmarket. Cadburys. 😔

HereComesTheSum · 11/03/2022 19:17

Velvetiser hazelnut praline 😛

Marks and Spencer drinking chocolate - it's by far the best I've ever had, and I've tried a lot!

Bogiesaremyonlyfriend · 11/03/2022 19:19

Wispa one I found in Asda, really nice. With a little golden syrup in... yum

SisterGabriel · 11/03/2022 19:19

Poulain - I usually buy it on holiday in France but Covid got in the way and I had to resort to Amazon, which is expensive. Worth it though Drinking Chocolate Poulain 32% Cocoa - 800G www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00ZUUZGN6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_HVYHHRAHJG1HQH96E0BY?psc=1&_encoding=UTF8&tag=mumsnetforu03-21

notacooldad · 11/03/2022 19:19

Twinings Swiss style. Expensive but worth every penny in my view my favourite too and I’m annoyed that I’ve ran out and forgot to pick some up.

PinkPlantCase · 11/03/2022 19:19

Cadbury’s drinking chocolate made with milk

SteakExpectations · 11/03/2022 19:19

Marimba 😋😋😋

MidnightMeltdown · 11/03/2022 19:20

I like most hot chocolates that are made with milk (NOT hot water!)

Whittard white hot chocolate is the best. Also like Twinings Swiss hot chocolate.

WhenTheDragonsCame · 11/03/2022 19:24

I love white chocolate with mint. I bought 5 packets of this from Aldi. It is so nice!
