Galaxy Popcorn Hot Chocolate (Sainsbury's) By @Cinabar

As we are officially in hot chocolate season, I had a bit of a browse in the supermarket. Here I found an interestingly flavoured instant hot chocolate. Galaxy Popcorn Hot Chocolate is the new autumn flavour for us to savour on cold evenings. Normally, I prefer the hot milk hot chocolates as they always seem creamier, but I can't resist a new flavour.

I opened up the tub, and I have to say there was a surprising amount of air gap. It looked like someone had already made themselves a drink or two, but this is what it looked like brand new.

I put the kettle on and found that the drink mixed well with the water. A few stirs, and there weren't too many lumps. I gave it a try and found it a bit disappointing to be honest. The chocolate drink was smooth, but the popcron was just a mild background flavour. I was hoping for something stronger, but it was a bit lost against the chocolate. It was nice enough to drink because of the chocolate flavour, but if, like me, you were hoping for a wonderful, strong popcorn flavour, then you might find it a bit mild.
