Why deprive yourself of the luxury of mug of hot chocolate before bed, when there are so many low calorie instant drinks available. Find out what our panel think…   Pleasure, Instant Hot Chocolate Drink, Options* The panel's favourite. This was a rich chocolate drink with a velvety brown colour. It looks good and tastes good - the best by far! .  Per Sachet(36g)† Per 100ml CALORIES 68kcal 34kcal FAT 2.3g 1.1g Caffe Latte, High Lights, Cadbury* If you like coffee - you'll like this caffe latte from Cadbury's. A smooth, creamy and rich chocolate/coffee drink - and only 40 kcals a mug.   Per Sachet(22g)† Per 100ml CALORIES 40kcal 20kcal FAT 1.3g 0.7g Chocolatey Ovaltine Light, Hi-Malt Instant Drink, Ovaltine* If you're more of a malt addict you'll like this chocolate malted drink from Ovaltine. It has a nice appearance and flavoursome taste.  Per Serving(20g)† Per 100ml CALORIES 72kcal 36kcal FAT 1.4g 0.6g Instant Hot Chocolate Drink, Be Good to Yourself, Sainsbury's* A watery appearance and a watery consistency. There wasn't much chocolate in this one - and it had a artificial sweet after taste. Not recommended.  Per Sachet(28g)† Per 100ml CALORIES 101kcal 56kcal FAT 1.1g 0.6g Instant Hot Chocolate Drink, Good for You, Asda* This one had a pleasing chocolatey colour, but again was watery in consistency. Not favoured. Per Serving(105g)† Per 100ml CALORIES 101kcal 53kcal FAT 3.6g 0.6g †Retailer's Recommended Portion Size Conclusion Option's Pleasure was the outstanding hot chocolate drink. Notably the chocolate/coffee and chocolate/malt drinks were also greatly favoured - depending on taste. The panel were surprised that Sainsbury's and Asda's - which were watery and lacking in chocolate taste - were the highest in calories!   "I would like to add Clipper Organic Double Chocolate ... high in kcal at 98 for the sachet, but very chocolatey in flavour and not too sweet. It has no aftertaste as there is no artificial sweetener, just sugar. It's more expensive than the twin sachets, but I feel it's nicer and therefore justifies the cost!"
