Tesco shoppers are rushing to their local stores to buy a new Butterscotch Brownie Options hot chocolate, released to warm people up during the cold winter months. The flavour is currently available at Clubcard prices for £3, down from its usual £5.40.
New Winter Flavour Causes Excitement
The supermarket giant has reportedly stocked its shelves with the new addition to the popular Options hot chocolate lineup, sparking plenty of excitement among sweet-toothed fans. Twinings, who produce Options, state: "A deliciously satisfying hot chocolate drink for those chocolatey moments that we all love. Perfect for any time of the day, so sit down, relax and enjoy."
Shoppers were genuinely thrilled about the flavour, particularly given that Options is widely recognised as a low-calorie hot chocolate brand, meaning you can treat yourself even if you're watching your calorie intake in the run-up to Christmas. A standard serving of the hot chocolate is just 40 calories.
Shoppers React in Comments
In the comments of the Facebook post where New Foods UK had shared the news, someone wrote: "Ooh, I wonder if it's like the old butterscotch they used to do." The Twinings website states that it's a caramel and cream flavour.
"Imagine that at Christmas," another gushed while tagging a friend, really wanting to give it a go. Others have already tried it, however, and have reported that "it's lovely," so if you were thinking about giving it a go, then that may just persuade you. "I'm sure I will be trying this soon," someone added. Another wrote: "Need to try this."
Other Flavours Available
If this particular flavour doesn't take your fancy, there are plenty of other options to choose from. As per the Twinings website, you can also get Belgian Choc (Classic), Belgian Choc Mint, Belgian Choc Salted Caramel, Belgian Choc Orange, Belgian Choc Cherry, White Choc & White Choc Berry, Butterscotch Brownie and Praline.
