Lights, Camera, Chocolate: Movie Night in a Cup from Hot Chocolate Festival 2026!

 

Have you got your ticket? The hot chocolate 2026 is now showing, January 17 at all Honolulu Coffee locations. Don’t miss the premiere! 

This year, we’re bringing you something a little more cinematic. It’s been several years since our team has poured more than just chocolate into every cup.We’ve poured heart, creativity, and a love for bringing people together. Every year, the Hot Chocolate Festival gives us a chance to dream, experiment, and create something special, and every year, our incredible team rises to the challenge with passion and imagination.

This year, we took inspiration from one of our favorite shared experiences, the movie night. The feeling of sitting together, snacks in hand, and ready to enjoy a story. We wanted to turn that feeling into something you could hold, sip, and take it with you. Our 2026 hot chocolate creations are focusing on playful toppings, bold flavors, and that cozy movie-night atmosphere you can enjoy anywhere.

And now, we’re so excited to introduce this year’s two stars.

SHALL WE DIP?

Romantic, bold, and a little spicy, Shall We Dip? It’s a love story in chocolate form. This hot chocolate is a rich 70% dark spicy hot chocolate, gently spiced with cinnamon and a mild touch of cayenne for a subtle heat that is just enough to intrigue you. A hint of maple syrup smooths everything out, creating a perfectly balanced cup. Finish it with a drizzle of chocolate sauce and serve it with mini churros on the side. Crispy, sweet, and made for sharing (or not), this drink is all about playful interaction and cozy indulgence.

WHAT’S THE PLOT?

Looking for something playful? If your ideal movie night includes popcorn and chocolate, What’s the Plot? is made for you. This 70% dark chocolate hot chocolate is infused with buttery popcorn notes, creating a cinematic flavor that instantly brings movie theaters to mind.

Topped with salty-sweet popcorn, every sip is a mix of rich chocolate and classic movie-night comfort. It’s familiar, surprising, and impossible not to smile at, just like a really good film.

What makes this journey truly meaningful is not just the drinks themselves, but the moments they create. We love seeing you come back year after year bringing your friends, your family, or even just yourself to share something warm, comforting, and made with care. These cups of hot chocolate become part of your winter memories: conversations, laughter, quiet moments, and stories shared over something sweet. So grab your cup, imagine the opening scene, and let each sip roll like a perfect plot twist.

Join us for the Hot Chocolate Festival 2026 running from January 17 to February 14. Get a cinnamon hot chocolate with mini churros or a buttery popcorn flavored hot chocolate now.

Can’t wait to see you, popcorn and all. 🎬✨
