If you're looking for a way to beat the winter chill, [Swiss Miss'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swiss-miss-cinnamon-toast) new Lucky Charms Hot Chocolate is the perfect pick me up.

[Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-hot-chocolate) snack sleuth @candyhunting recently announced that Swiss Miss will be debuting a Lucky Charms Hot Chocolate in the very near future. According to the packaging, the hot chocolate is made with premium imported cocoa for a rich chocolate flavor. But instead of the usual mini marshmallows, the mix contains the colorful cereal marshmallows found in Lucky Charms cereal. The result is a warm and sweet drink with a little pop of color on top. In other words, this new hot chocolate is 'magically delicious.'

Though [Conagra Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-cocoa-candle) has not provided an official release date, expect to see the hot cocoa mix on store shelves soon.
