It’s that time of year again: the time where it’s totally acceptable to drink your calories in the form of rich, hot chocolatey beverages as a means to stay warm and no one can judge you because they’re likely doing the same. But no two hot chocolate drinks are alike, and there are some that are worth venturing to all parts of the city for the creamiest cocoa-ladden cup. So in the pursuit of journalism, and really good hot chocolate, we personally trekked across the city to taste taste the best chocolate beverages that Toronto has to offer and handily listed them here. You’ll want to visit (and drink) them all.

1. MoRoCo Chocolat, Sipping Chocolate, small pot for $12

It’s no surprise that this French salon du chocolat serves up some of the best chocolate experiences in Toronto: from fondue to afternoon tea to macarons you will literally lose all self control over. But the sipping chocolate is unlike any other: a decadent pot of your choice of 66 per cent dark chocolate, milk chocolate infused with chai or a feature flavour (like Nutella!). And if for whatever reason you’re still undecided, we’ll leave you with these words: Boozy Pumpkin Hot White Chocolate cocktail.
