Think I've only ever had the Cadbury's drinking chocolate.

I went on a detox from caffeine so I'm all all manner of green and herbal teas nowadays. I think my body would reject coffee at this point if I tried.

Try Bovril with a sprinkle of Celery Salt or get the French version Viandox from Frenchclick.co.uk !

I only like cadburys hot chocolate.

I actually bought a cadburys hazelnut one earlier today, not sure if it will be too sickly though.

I don't like coffee or teas, wouldn't mind trying herbal teas though

If you are just asking about hot drinks then try a beef oxo in a cup with some pepper it's amazing during the winter.

Just buy that Cadbury stuff that you just add water to for hot chocolate, can't be bothered with heating up milk or anything like some of them need you to do. Coffee I just go for Nescafe original as well, though thinking about I should probably branch out a bit more cos that's the only coffee I've ever drunk really

Is it good with just water? I thought you had to add milk. :suspect:

Hot chocolate is so boring and doesn't even taste nice (spent like £4 on some bournville dark chocolate one thinking it'd taste amazing but it sucks)

coffee doesn't taste too nice either

tea > or just a can of coke zero :love:

It's alright, the stuff that needs milk is probably better but what I buy you're only supposed to just add hot water

In the Winter Bovril with Celery Salt is the way to go!

If you get a creamy froth on top then it probably also contains the chemical that makes it look like it was made with milk.

For the benefit of non Scots, that means it triggers the gag reflex!

Get a mug of milk, microwave it for 2 minutes, then stir in 2 spoons of Nutella.
That's a hot chocolate!

I have searched everywhere for the liquid stuff that wetherspoons make their hot chocolate with, thers is actually amazing and I think it's the only other hot chocolate I like other than Cadburys.

I'm a bit fussy about instant coffee and can only drink the more expensive brands. You should try any of the filtered, they're all quite good.

I cant remember that last time I had a cup of chocolate. Its not my cup of tea. :pipe:

This MIGHT be the one Wetherspoon uses, but unless you use a LOT it may not be practicable!!

I like fruit flavoured tea as well. Twinings make the best ones for me.

Yeah, my uni housemate had it and I definitely didn't keep stealing it whilst he was away on holiday. (It costs £5.50 a pot apparently :/)

And yeah just the usual way you make hot chocolate really :laugh: (I know you can have it with hot water and a bit of milk but it always tastes infinitely better with hot milk)
