Best Hot Chocolate K Cups!

It was a tough job, but someone had to do it.

We ordered hot chocolate K cups from 10 brands and then did a taste test with chocolate enthusiasts among our parent readers. Which was most chocolate-y? Creamiest? 

When it comes to hot chocolate, there are two camps of fans: those that like flavored hot chocolate (example: hot chocolate with butterscotch, etc), and those who prefer their hot chocolate straight up—the more chocolaty-y, the better.

One tip: if you prefer your hot chocolate thicker, consider using the six ounce (versus eight ounce) setting. That’s because some of our testers thought the 8 ounce setting made the hot chocolate too weak.

For the best variety of flavors, we liked Two Rivers Chocolate Hot Cocoa Pods. Yes, this brand has SIXTEEN flavors of hot cocoa, from Junior Mint to Tootsie Roll . . . and more classic flavors like salted caramel and cherry cordial. Here’s more: best hot chocolate K cups
