I love hot chocolate so I was really excited about getting to review a hot chocolate energy drink.The problem is it really isn't much of an energy drink. I mean it is pretty damn tasty hot cocoa, but where is the energy? I was expecting cocoa that was slightly bitter with an increased level of caffeine, I just ended up getting a nice good cup of hot chocolate. No real caffeine, no real energy, just good tasting warm liquid chocolate. I can't really complain, but if your going to call yourself an energy product and market yourself along with energy drinks pack some extra caffeine, guarana, or yerba mate in the blend. Don't go crazy and don't ruin the cocoa, but you better give me something if your an energy drink. Anyways the rating which is pretty high reflects the taste of the cocoa, which is far better than hot chocolate from start bucks and most other coffee shops, but it would have done extremely well if I really felt a boost of energy in any real way. Mmm so HC make me a hot chocolate with some real energy pack me in some kick so I can go skiing all winter long.
