Whittards Hot Chocolate with Ginger

I bought this around Christmas time (when I was on my hot chocolate fact finding mission on behalf of Chocablog) with the intention of brewing up a cup or two and giving you an in depth review. At £4.50 a tub, I had high hopes for it, especially as I like ginger too.
However…
…I looked at the ingredients before opening it up.
Over 59% of this expensive, ‘premium’ branded drinking chocolate is sugar. Yes, that’s right. I have paid over £2.00 for 200g of sugar.
I felt like I’d been mugged. If I could return it I would.
So beware, good reader. Not all hot chocolate is actually chocolate, and charging us a fortune for a fancy container with a load of sugar in it is an affront and an offence. Avoid this sugary rubbish.
End of rant.
