hot chocolates

Steaming cocoa mugs

Hot chocolates is the plural of hot chocolate, a warm beverage made from cocoa powder or melted chocolate mixed with milk or water.

The plural typically appears when ordering or serving multiple drinks: We ordered three hot chocolates after skating.

Also called hot cocoa, though purists distinguish between cocoa-powder versions and those made with real chocolate.
