麻豆传媒映画Hot Chocolate Festival 2024: Drinks, locations

What better way to balance out the chill and gloom of January and February in Metro 麻豆传媒映画than with a few cups of comforting hot chocolate?

That's the premise of the , which runs from Jan. 13 to Feb. 14, 2024 and features an impressive 71 vendors serving up 162 hot chocolate drinks at 105 locations across the region.

Fans of the warm chocolatey bev can get their fill at this DIY drink-around event. This year there are Star Wars-themed drinks (Beaucoup), drinks you can turn into works of art (Honolulu Coffee), and plenty of options for plant-based sippers or the 19+ set who enjoy a little something extra in their hot chocolate.

Many returning "chocstars" (the organizers' term for its participating vendors) are outdoing themselves once again, with some pretty showstopping drinks on offer. Aiyaohno Café has one made with durian, while The Pie Hole and the Bel Cafe are inspired by apple pie.

Trafiq Café & Bakery's drinks are all influenced by the flavours of Mexico, Bella Gelateria's hot chocolates will whisk you away on a tour of Italy, and Mon Paris will take you to France.

Over at the 麻豆传媒映画Aquarium, they've got a duo of ocean-critter themed sips (and you don't have to pay admission to the venue to enjoy them). Several beverages come with treats on the side, like cannoli, macarons, banana bread, tarts, donuts, and cookie. Or even savoury bites, like banh mi.

French Toast, PB&J, birthday cake, candied yam...you name it, there's likely a 2024 Hot Chocolate Festival drink featuring that flavour.
