Absolutely delicious!

Wow! I have never had orange chocolate milk before, but I was pleasantly surprised. I used coconut drink instead of soy milk and it worked really well. I’ll make this for Sinterklaas this weekend because I am sure my family will love it too. Thank you for the recipe.

This is a beautiful little find 🥰 I've been wanting to make this for a while but waited for oranges to come back in season. This is a lovely mug of comfort for this colder weather! Thank you :)

Would love to try this one too, don't know what to choose for breakfast 🤔😊😋

I love the orange in this

Can you explain what "Dutch processed " cocooa powder is? What's the difference from "normal " cocooa powder?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 10, 2024, 10:46 p.m.

Hey there, Kristina, Dutch processed cocoa powder is also known as alkalized cocoa. It's a processed form of cocoa powder that's sweeter in taste and dissolves easily in liquid compared to natural cocoa powder which is more bitter. We personally prefer Dutch-processed cocoa powder since it's more mellow 😊

Delicious! Added a shot of espresso. Over the top.

A delicious idea, LaTa, thank you!

I will never buy premade packets again. So delicious!!!!


Aleksandra - Jan. 5, 2024, 2:18 p.m.

I like it!


Yume - Jan. 1, 2024, 9:58 p.m.

Very good!!! I did had a little more milk because it was intense but it's so good!!


Chrysiida - Jan. 1, 2024, 12:22 p.m.

First thing I tried in New Years and I loved it so much! I don't know how to describe it but the orange flavor gives the chocolate suck a comforting feeling! Probably my new favorite hot chocolate recipe!

Aww we're so happy that the Orange Hot Chocolate was enjoyed, Chrysiida! Wishing you the Happiest New Year as well. May 2024 be filled with an abundance of delicious recipes and wellness 😇

My whole family loved it! We served it with vegan marshmallows!


Alexis Bushnell - Dec. 25, 2023, 10:31 p.m.

"God tier" according to a friend! I loved it too. Really scrumptious.


Jeanette Cabral - Dec. 25, 2023, 4:24 p.m.

A little too rich for us. We felt a bit sick after. Will try again as we liked the orange flavour, but will skip the addition of the dark chocolate.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 26, 2023, 3:38 p.m.

Hey Jeanette, thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with this drink, it is indeed one of our more indulgent hot chocolate recipes. In case it helps, both our Wholesome Hot Chocolate and Golden Vegan Hot Chocolate recipes use no added sugar (sweetened only with dates). We also have a Chai Hot Chocolate recipe which does contain chocolate and sugar, but still less than this recipe. I hope this helps for now!


Shruti Pandey - Dec. 22, 2023, 5:04 p.m.

Loved the flavours, so indulgent and creamy ❤️

424 calories per serving ? Perhaps it’s because of the whipped cream? I think this would be ~200 calories if you skipped that. Looks delicious

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 21, 2023, 8:02 p.m.

Hey Anya, a bulk of the calories for this recipe comes from the dark chocolate but there's a variation from brand to brand so it might be less or more depending on which one you use. We hope you enjoy the hot chocolate if you give it a try! 😊


Anna - Dec. 19, 2023, noon

Hi PUL team, does the orange juice get added? Also the pics seem to show chocolate powder but the recipe is just with chocolate?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 20, 2023, 7:43 a.m.

Hey Anna! Oh thanks so much for catching that! The orange juice gets added with all the remaining ingredients to the saucepan, we've added the cocoa powder, and we've updated the directions to make this all more clear. Thank you for helping us improve what we do, and we hope you enjoy the hot chocolate if you give it a try! 🤗
