Great combo flavor and wonderful alt to our normal Earl Grey (for him ) and Cafe Verona (for me). A nice way to carry on the holiday feeling into January and February. For our friends in the Northeast post Nemo, this would be a great thing to have

Was very surprised to not be able to taste any peppermint flavor...come on this is Starbucks with one of the best coffee and cocoa flavors around and no peppermint taste. I only gave the 2 stars because of the really good taste of the dark chocolate flavor, but if I wanted just the chocolate flavor I would of gotten the double mocha cocoa...was disappointed to say the least...The caramel and toasted marshmallow cocoa is 5 stars!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Loved it so much when I went to a local Starbucks I just had to order some for myself at home. I know it's a seasonal item but I wish it was on the menu year round. I have enjoyed this product so much I have thought about ordering some more if it is still on the website.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I am a stronger lover of Starbuck's peppermint hot chocolate so I thought I would like this make at home style of the drink and I was very disappointed in the results. Even after following the directions to a tee it did not taste anything like the hot chocolate that you get at the store. I did not taste any peppermint in the drink at all and I would never buy this drink mix again.
No, I do not recommend this product.

The peppermint flavor makes the holidays better.

No Peppermint

I was so excited to see the Peppermint Hot Chocolate mixes in my grocery store. I love Starbucks Peppermint Hot Chocolate from the store, but there isn't a convient one on my way to work and some days I just want one. When I saw the packets I was so excited. However I made the hot chocolate and there was absoultely no peppermint flavor at all. It just tasted like hot chocolate mix. Very dissapointed.
No, I do not recommend this product.

At first I was scared to try this at home because I love it so much at Starbucks store. This is my go to cold weather drink since I am not a coffee drinker. The taste was just like I was sitting inside a Starbuck's ........love it.

I'm not a coffee drinker, so I'm always looking for unique hot chocolate drinks to begin my day. Starbuck's Peppermint Hot Cocoa Mix is absolutely delicious. It's sweet, and has a great chocolate and peppermint taste that's not overpowering, but not subtle either. It's the perfect combination. I am definitely going to order more!!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I tried this over the holidays last year, and it's been my favorite cocoa ever since. It's not always in the stores, so I order it online. Its the perfect blend of dark chocolate with a peppermint kick. Gotta have it!
