BIGGBY® COFFEE Celebrates National Hot Chocolate Day with Near Endless Possibilities

 

East Lansing, MI, January 29, 2020–At BIGGBY® COFFEE we believe nothing is as unique as you—except your BIGGBY® COFFEE beverage! This National Hot Chocolate Day, January 31, we’re challenging you—yes, YOU—to build a hot chocolate as unique as you!

 

Made with rich decadent chocolate, and blended with smooth velvet milk, BIGGBY® COFFEE hot chocolate is one of our most popular non-caffeinated beverage. With an array of additional flavors, BIGGBY® COFFEE customers can make a drink as wild as their imagination will allow them.

Create a classic flavor by adding caramel or mint for a tried-and-true favorite. Get a little nutty by adding coconut or hazelnut; or try something fruity like raspberry, strawberry, or blackberry. If you want to get a little crazy, try adding our famous mellow flavor for a s’more flavor!

 

Not a huge chocolate fan? Try any of these options with our magnificent white chocolate! If you want something even more flavorful, add mellow and cinnamon for a cinnamon roll flavor! Add chai flavoring for a classic sweet and spicy flavor. For a limited time, try either chocolate flavor with our salty caramel or salty brown butter toffee flavorings. Topped with whipped cream and an added garnish flavor, you’re in for a wonderful treat to warm you up this winter!

 

Make your hot chocolate even more unique by trying it with one of our milk alternatives! With almond milk, coconut milk, and oat milk options available at select locations, make your hot chocolate just the way you want it!

 

One thing is for sure—no matter how you make your BIGGBY® COFFEE hot chocolate, you can expect a lot of fun and flavor. Not sure what to get? Ask your barista what his or her favorite is! Be sure to stop in to your BIGGBY® COFFEE on January 31, National Hot Chocolate Day, and find a hot chocolate combination as unique as you! Be sure to tag #BIGGBYCOFFEE in all your #NationalHotChocolateDay creations!

BIGGBY® COFFEE, East Lansing, Mich.-based, was started with a single store on March 15, 1995. One year later, and on the cusp of opening a second location, Bob Fish and Michael McFall, on a handshake and $4,000, decided to franchise the concept. BIGGBY® COFFEE’s cultural values of Make Friends, Have Fun, B Yourself, and Share Great Coffee help coffee-lovers and the coffee-curious alike benefit from a less pretentious and fun approach to the standard gourmet cafe paradigm. Besides connoisseur-worthy drinks with pronounceable names like Teddy Bear® and Caramel Marvel®, BIGGBY® baristas provide a unique experience focused on brightening their customers’ day and supporting them in building a life they love. The “Big ‘B’” on the orange background caught on, and today BIGGBY® COFFEE has more than 230 cafes across many states including Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Kentucky, and Florida. In 2018, BIGGBY® launched an Area Representative Program and currently has 8 Area Representatives in 6 states.
