I taste-tested five hot-cocoa mixes from Ghirardelli, Hershey's, Land O'Lakes, Publix, and Swiss Miss and compared the results.

- To find the best store-bought hot cocoa, I tried prepackaged powders from five different brands.
- I bought standard mixes from Ghirardelli, Hershey's, Land O'Lakes, Publix, and Swiss Miss.
- Ghirardelli's hot cocoa was the best — it was rich and chocolaty.
There are a lot of hot-cocoa mixes at the grocery store, but which is the best?
