Connecticut’s Best Hot Cocoa
The first snow of the season is coming and that means it’s time for a round up of delicious places to get hot chocolate.
We have some INCREDIBLE coffee shops, bakeries, and restaurants that take hot cocoa to the NEXT LEVEL here in CT. We’re talking melted chocolate bars, homemade marshmallows, extra caramel drizzle, melt in your mouth ooey, gooey deliciousness.
This map is VERY MUCH under construction. Did I miss something? Let me know and I’ll add it (and, of course, take a trip there for “quality control”- as if I needed another excuse to enjoy more hot cocoa…)
