Hot chocolate?

I'm seriously thinking about doing a taste comparison of all the different
sachets of choccy drinks, does anyone have any recommendations?
I find that most of them come out as hot water with a vague aftertaste of
'near-chocolate' and a big sludgy lump at the bottom of my mug but the
Malteser ones seem quite good.

Be sure to compare them to a mug of strong coffee with an ounce or two of dakr
chocolate melted in and stirred through in place of sugar.

I doubt it's healthy, but it is fun.

Lyons Coffee Bags for me. Carry :-( a small flask of hot water, drop a
coffee bag in at the top. Tastes great and gives me a jag of caffiene to
get me down. ;-)

They all taste good when you're sufficiently cold/wet/knackered :-)

Chardonnel et Walker is the only one worth drinking - but only if
someone else is paying.

I see there's a nice Fair Trade, organic one by Clipper, which asks
for water (rather than milk) and claims to be low fat but to taste
nice.

I think the Green & Blacks ones are pretty good too, although not as
good as their choccy.

I used to have some of that, and by coincidence I saw some in the
s/market this afternoon for the first time in years. Mmmmm..... :-)

The Ovaltine one was pretty nice. Not tried the sachet - we just had a jar
for several days - but I'd imagine the sachet is the same stuff.
