Limited Edition Gingerbread Hot Chocolate (Whittards) By @Cinabar

I think my hot chocolate problem may be getting out of hand. I am running out of space in the Foodstuff finds cupboard. I can’t stop myself from buying a new tub if I see a new flavour, and I went into Whittards and I found two new flavours. Now I’m rethinking where to put the jar of coffee in the cupboard.

The only solution is to increase the amount of hot chocolate I drink to bring back balance, and I’m up for that challenge. The first new flavour I’m going to try is this Limited Edition Gingerbread Hot Chocolate. I heated up some milk and stirred in 3 teaspoons per mug. The powder dissolved easily, and the hot chocolate was a nice dark colour. I gave it a sip, and the flavour was rich chocolate and soft ginger. It was sweet, and the spice was present but not hot; instead, it was also a treacle-like flavour with the spice. This did recreate gingerbread, and it was a lovely warming drink for the autumn. I love Whittards hot drinks and can’t wait to try my other new tub too. I do have to finish a tub before I buy a new one, but that sounds like it shouldn’t be a problem now that the evenings are drawing in.
