Galaxy hot chocolate drink

Advantages: Great tasting hot chocolate made with just water.
Disadvantages: Heavy on the calories and carbs.

...I love chocolate Dairy milk or Galaxy it doesn't really matter so when I saw a hot chocolate drink made by Galaxy I just had to buy it. I think it was around 30p for one sachet. This one came from Tesco but is available at other shops too. It comes in a 28g packet and to me it looks slightly orange but I think it is supposed to be a chocolate colour. It has Galaxy written in brown writing across the middle and instant hot chocolate drink just under that in smaller writing. Think chocolate, think indulgence, think galaxy hot chocolate. The back of the packet is a darker brown colour and has the ingredients, which I don't think I need to list except the fact that there is 7.5g of real galaxy chocolate in this sachet, allergy advice, which tells you it contains milk and Soya, nutrition information. Per serving this hot chocolate drink...

Review of Galaxy Instant Hot Chocolate Drink

Hot Drinks at the touch of a button!!

Advantages: Very Straightforward to use
Disadvantages: Has its fitting phase when making your drink,

...*Updated review as at 17th May 2006* I have been meaning to get one of these machines for a long time as I'm always on the go and love my hot drinks (especially Suchard Hot Chocolate). *Price* When I saw this machine advertised at a reduced price of £79.99 (cheaper than most places) in Morrisons last week there was no stopping in me. Plus what's more is you get a free 18 disc pack set of Cafe Crema (which would last you at least a week depending on how much you consume a day). I was hoping for a variety pack so I could try them all out first before buying but at least I get to try one of the 7 drinks this machine has to offer. Bargain I thought as I'd seen the exact same model in Sainsburys going at £99.99 with no disc pack. I bought mine when it was on a special promotion so the machines itself might have gone back up to...

Hot Drinks, Cold Nights

Advantages: tastes good, easy to make, lasts for ages
Disadvantages: -

...on how much of a hot chocolate addict you are. Apart from the Instant Hot Chocolate drink there is also the Cadburys Drinking Chocolate which is a similar idea but you add warm milk to your powder instead and it tastes just as nice. There are also highlights sachet's which come in the flavours dark chocolate, mint, fudge, café latte, orange, espresso and toffee....

Review of Cadburys High Lights Hot Chocolate

Creamy hot chocolate

Advantages: Creamy and thick
Disadvantages: Can be expensive as not many servings per jar

...I love nothing more than sitting down with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book and lately with having no sunny days hardly I thought it might be a good idea to get some in for when it's a horrible day and I'm stuck in the house! So when looking for one I came across the Galaxy Hot chocolate in the home bargains store and so thought it seemed pretty good as I love Galaxy chocolate anyway and hoped it might taste really nice! The tub: The tub is quite narrow but tall as the one I have has an extra 33% more in it. The tub has the usual Galaxy logo on it with the packaging in brown the same as the chocolate bars are. The tub is 266g in size and has all the ingredient information on the label along with the instructions on how to make the drink. The powder: When I first opened the tub I wasn't sure what to expect as I'd never had...

Review of Galaxy Instant Hot Chocolate Drink

Options Belgian Hot Choc Drink

Advantages: Tastes Delicious
Disadvantages: None

...I tend to drink quite a lot of tea and coffee throughout the day however at night time I try and lay off this after seven o'clock In the evening as the caffeine tends to keep me up half the night as well. After this time I tend to stick to herbal drinks, horlicks and if I am feeling particularly cold tired and miserable hot chocolate. I have tried a number of versions of this drink over the years which have considerably varied in taste and ease of preparation. I was in my local supermarket and they had an offer on a tub of the options hot chocolate drinks. I hadn't actually tried this particular brand so I decided that I would give it a try. The particular Options variety was "Options Choc". There were quite a few varieties included in the offer however I settled on this one as I simply adore Belgian chocolate. I purchased this...

Review of Options Hot Chocolate

Butlers Hot Chocolate Drink

Advantages: Attractive packaging, attractive price point, simple to make.
Disadvantages: Not chocolatey enough!!

...Firstly, I would like to point out that although this product comes under the category of "Cocoa (Instant)", it is not cocoa - it is Hot Chocolate! That means that it is a drink made with "real" chocolate, not with cocoa powder. I have mixed feelings about Butlers chocolates in general - I have tasted many of their products, and I love some of them, and am not so keen on others. So, it was with interest that I tried this new product. It has only just become available here in Ireland, I am not sure you can buy it in the UK as yet. First things first - the box itself is very attractive. It is a rich chocolatey brown colour with the Butlers logo in gold, and a photo of a pair of hands holding a teacup with a delicious looking chocolate drink in the cup, and a piece of the chocolate that you find inside dropping into the drink...

Review of Butlers Hot Chocolate

Hoorah...A hot chocolate drink I love to have

Advantages: tastes smooth,really chocolaty
Disadvantages: none

...Many of you who have read some of my opinions will know that I have mentioned several times that I don’t like hot chocolate. I have a theory that no hot chocolate drinks taste of actual chocolate and they taste so artificial it isn’t even funny. So what happened to me last night surprised me to say the least. Stephen and me were walking through Tesco when suddenly I had a craving for hot chocolate. I am going to be going back to work (hopefully for Tesco on nights) and I was thinking to get me off to sleep and to wake me up I’d need something soothing. But what made me think of hot chocolate when I clearly dislike it so much? I’ve even tried Cadbury’s drinking chocolate…the maker of my favourite chocolate bars, but to me it tasted nothing like chocolate. Then last night I saw this…Mars galaxy...

Review of Mars Galaxy Instant Smooth Dark Hot Chocolate Drink

Twinings Swiss hot chocolate drink, a delicious luxury beverage

Advantages: High quality, deliscious chocolatety drink with added vitamins and minerals
Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than rivals

...Twinings Swiss chocolate drink is a hot chocolate powder drink made by hating up milk on the hob or in the microwave and the instructions say 'pour over' 3-4 heaped teaspoons of chocolate powder, although I find it works just as well to stir in the powder. The result is a delicious hot chocolate that rivals some of the hot chocolate I have recently had in cafes. The drink is smooth and rich (particularly when you use 5 teaspoons of powder), and goes well with cake and biscuits or as an evening beverage. I am very fussy with my hot chocolate and won't drink and of the 'instant' drinks made with water. I have tried galaxy and Green & Blacks Organic (which I found too bitter), but remained loyal to Cadbury Drinking chocolate for hot milk until I tried the Twinings. The Twinings is more expensive than the Cadburys, but at £2.99 for 350g...

Review of Ovaltine Malt Drink

Aero Instant bubbly hot chocolate drink. 288g jar

Advantages: Can be made as strong or as weak as you'd like it to be
Disadvantages: Doesn't last long if you have friends over as they all want some

...Aero instant bubbly hot chocolate drink is made by Nestle. I have to confess that i'm not normally a fan of hot chocolate so would never have tried this if not for a friend who made me one after a night on the town. I tried it and am now the biggest fan of Aero hot chocolate...it is delicious! I went out the next day and bought a Jar that will make upto 12 servings. This is great as you can make it as strong or as weak as you'd like. They suggest on the jar that you place 4 heaped teaspoons into a mug, I find this a little strong so i only use 3 teaspoons which means i'll get a few extra servings from the jar. The flavour is quite subtle and not too strong. I love milk chocolate and this is definately the taste i get from this hot chocolate, there is none of the bitterness of dark chocolate. The texture is quite creamy, its advertised...
