Swiss Miss

Hot cocoa brand

Swiss Miss is a brand of instant hot cocoa mix, so widely recognized that it sometimes stands in generically for any powdered chocolate drink: I'll make us some Swiss Miss.

The name evokes alpine wholesomeness—Swiss chocolate, Swiss quality—though the product is American.

Separately, a Swiss miss might describe a young woman from Switzerland.
