Ok, so I said you can't beat Cadburys when it comes to hot chocolate, but he says Twinings is kick ass - so I'm definitely going to have to try it.
I also quite like Green & Blacks, but it's very rich I find.
I can't bear bear Whittards or Starbucks though :yuck: - and really prefer not to drink 'add water only' kind. Costa is usually pretty good.
I also don't like drinking it with any toppings - especially not whipped cream, although frothy milk is nice.
Which hot chocolate do you like, and how do you drink it?

I love whipped cream on top of my hot chocolate, with little marshmellows aswell!
if you dont believe me, try it. If you dont like it youve only wasted 40p or something but its better than a lot of expensive ones ive tasted!!
Nothing comes close to a Suchard's for me. I love my Suchard's with whizzy cream on top with chocolate sprinkles.
Love hot choc with marshmellows and whipped cream on top...Varsity do quite a nice one. Nero's is ok.
The only one that you add water to that's really nice is horlicks malted chocolate.
Best instant = Aldi. 79p, can't go wrong!
I don't like coffe shop hot chocolate, esp. Starbucks and Costa etc. It never tastes right and I always need a drink of water or something else afterwards! Starbucks is mainly frothy milk with brown topping. Tasteless and gritty.
We've got Cadburys atm and even though I don't mind it, it's a let down compared to Galaxy
I had an aero one with added baileys last night - I love the bubbles but it is difficult to stop it being lumpy!
I've tried Whittards white hot chocolate..wasnt impressed
Yum Yum YUM!
I like it with squirty cream and mini marshmellows sometimes too.
Not really tried any others.
Absolute NO to hot choccie made with water though... YUCK! :yuck:
Now I'm off to warm some milk...
I like the Cadburys (add milk) hot choccie... I don't mind Starbucks, either.
:yes: I've found that with the aero one too.
I like Cadburys powder with MILK please. I hatehatehate water-hot chocolate, it tastes of nothing and I always end up putting about two tons of sugar and 5 scoops of chocolate in it to get it to taste of anything .
i thought twinings made tea?
We're probably talking about the same one - Lidl definitely do an 'add water' hot chocolate/"cocoa drink" that is divine. Just as nice as any of the milky ones I've tried and a lot less faff.
Might have a cup now
I do like Green & Blacks though. I put a spoonful of Ovaltine in it sometimes which has garnered a lot of disgust but it tastes good!
Then pour it in a mug and top with squirty cream and marshmallows.
Sometimes i'll add a drop of vanilla, orange or mint extract.
