Posh Chocolat 

Reddit and Google ratings show that Posh Chocolat is a clear favorite in Missoula for hot chocolate.

Many Missoulians remember when Posh Chocolat had a location in the Florence building. According to the Posch Chocolat website, "We have closed our downtown location, please call us to place an order in Missoula (406) 543-2566." You can also still find Posh Chocolat at One Eleven Boutique on Higgins.

For their sipping chocolate, you can order on their website; they have holiday flavors like egg nog and candy cane as well as classic hot chocolate. That way you can enjoy it at home or take it with you.

But if you do want to grab a cup of hot chocolate while you're out and about Missoulians also love:

• Break Espresso
• Butterfly Herbs
• Bernice's Bakery
• Green Source
• Liquid Planet

Liquid Planet is another place where you can buy the hot chocolate mix and make it at home. They have two flavors, Cloud Nine and Aztec Spice.
