Tried 3 versions of Hot Chocolate — significant quality range

Out of curiosity I tried 3 different versions of Hot Chocolate over a month, varying quality of the source each time. The range was significant. Prepared in the morning with care at the best end, the digestive benefit was pronounced. At the worst end, genuinely mediocre.

The takeaway: the category isn't uniformly good. Getting to know what makes a version excellent versus average is worth the time. It made me a more intentional consumer rather than just grabbing whatever's available.
