19 Nov Find Your Flavour on the 2025 Hot Chocolate Trail

The hot chocolate trail is full of flavours across the Island – peppermint, orange, s’more, and hazelnut, to name a few. There is something for everyone, so invite your friends and family and start your holiday hot chocolate journey!
 

For the Person Who Wants a Caffeine Kick

The PEI Roti Infusion Cuisine is serving a Dirty Hot Cocoa Sorrel. This version combines rich cocoa with a shot of espresso for that extra kick, while sorrel adds a hint of spice. It’s a balanced blend that will warm and wake you up!
 

For the Matcha-Lover

Oh Hey in the City is offering something a little different with their Matcha Mint! In Founder’s Food Hall, this peppermint hot chocolate is topped with matcha cold cream and crushed candy canes!
 

For the Chocolate Lover

If you’re all about traditional hot chocolate, Jane & Sue Chocolate has you covered with their Classic Hot Chocolate. Made from their own handcrafted chocolate, it’s smooth, rich, and straightforward – exactly what a great hot chocolate should be.
 

For a Date

If you’re planning a casual winter date, stop by Frothy Coffee Bar for their Frothy Toffee. Sip on your hot chocolate while touring North Rustico’s PEI-famous light display!



For another date option, head to Holman’s Ice Cream Parlour in Summerside for their Pumpkin Spice White Hot Chocolate Float – a fun, shareable drink that works well as an after-dinner stop or a mid-day treat. Holman’s is located in a heritage house and boasts vintage charm that makes it a perfect date spot!
 

To Enjoy While Christmas Shopping

Head to The Great George Hotel and try their Cordial Cocoa before getting to your holiday shopping! Its hot chocolate gives a nod to Anne of Green Gables with its raspberry cordial flavour.

If you are on the other side of Charlottetown, grab a Holiday Hot Chocolate from Gallant’s & Co. Island Food to Go instead. It is Belgian hot chocolate drizzled with gingerbread caramel and topped with frothed milk and a gingerbread cookie!
 

For the Instagrammable Photo

Maple House Bakery & Café serves a Sweet Treat Hot Chocolate that’s as nice to look at as it is to drink. It is loaded with whipped cream, sprinkles, and the star of the show – a cake pop to top it off!



At Knead a Brake, the Liquid Brownie Kruffin Kup and Liquid Brownie Shot is made for chocolate lovers. It’s basically like having a brownie in liquid form!

To try a few flavours at once, Deep Roots Distillery offers a Hot Chocolate Cocktail Flight featuring a Spiced Caramel Apple, Sugar Shack Cocoa, and Gingerbread Mocha.
 

For the Rink Mom

For parents and fans spending their weekends at the rink, the Triple Axel CinnaSwirl is a well-deserved warm-up. You’ll find it at O’Leary Community Sports Center, as well as at the Evangeline Recreation Centre and Credit Union Arena.
 

 
With so many creative takes across the Island, the Hot Chocolate Trail is a great way to experience PEI’s local flavours this season. Whether you’re exploring with friends, shopping downtown, or cheering at the rink, there’s a cup waiting for you somewhere along the way.
