DALLAS - (Dec. 8, 2011)- Red Mango,
the #1 Zagat-rated frozen yogurt and smoothies chain in America, is
recreating fond winter memories with its first-ever hot beverage,
new Artisan Hot Chocolate in four delicious flavors debuting at
locations nationwide today.
"This time of the year always reminds me of the comfort of
keeping warm during the first winter snow," says Dan Kim, founder
and chief concept officer for Red Mango. "Watching snowflakes fall
while being surrounded by the smell of hot cocoa was the feeling I
wanted to capture with our Artisan Hot Chocolate."
Kim, who is committed to reproducing distinctive seasonal
experiences into new all-natural holiday treats, suggests savoring
the Artisan Hot Chocolate with a dollop of whipped cream and a
drizzle of chocolate syrup. The "Artisan" in the name pays tribute
to the company's expertise in flavor innovation. True to the
company's mission for indulging the natural and healthy way,
Artisan Hot Chocolate from Red Mango combines the best of
ingredients to melt away the winter chill while elevating the hot
chocolate drink to a new level.
Made with all-natural chocolate and nonfat milk, and infused
with Ghirardelli® premium cocoa, the velvety Artisan Hot Chocolate
is the company's newest winter offering with indulgent rich
chocolate swirled with any of four luxurious flavors: Double
Chocolate, Raspberry Chocolate Truffle, Irish Chocolate Crème, and
Chocolate Amaretto.
The Artisan Hot Chocolate collection is available for a limited
time at participating locations nationwide throughout the winter
season.
