This cool and foggy morning would be the perfect time for this delicious beverage. My third hot chocolate offering is my long-time favourite: Peppermint Hot Chocolate from Bean Around the World on lower Fisgard Street.

Very artful beverages: two large Peppermint Hot Chocolates and a regular Mocha (another fine chocolaty treat!).
