The Lindt Hot Chocolate drink mix is being launched by chocolate producer Lindt & Sprüngli in the UK just ahead of the cold weather months to provide consumers with a way to enjoy the comforting beverage at their leisure.
The drink mix is achieved without any milk powder in the mix, which makes it a velvety yet vegan-friendly product for consumers to try out. The mix is crafted using 35% cocoa solids to give it a rich, deep chocolate flavor and is suited for being stirred in your choice of milk.
The Lindt Hot Chocolate drink mix is arriving at Tesco, Ocado and Lindt chocolate shops in the UK now as well as online from Amazon at a price point of £4 per 300-gram tin.
