Chocolate lovers rejoice, Nestlé has just launched what can only be described as a hug in a mug.

As a nation of caffeine addicts, Brits are constantly searching for ways to up their coffee game - whether you're a latte with two pumps of sugar-free caramel syrup kind of guy or simply love a strong black Americano (aka a psychopath). But there's now an elite way to kick-start your day and indulge yourself.

Nestlé has debuted a brand new product under its Nescafé range, combining a traditional mocha with one of its most iconic chocolate bars - and shoppers are going mad for it.

Nescafé Aero Peppermint Mocha is the latest instant frothy coffee to hit supermarket shelves. Featuring fresh milk and drinking chocolate, the new beverage has 'luxurious notes of peppermint'; each mug contains just 78 calories and is suitable for vegetarians. "The mochas come in sachets making them quick and easy to use by adding hot water - great for a break time treat," Nestle added.

The new drinks aren't yet available to order online but can be purchased in-store. Customers say a box of seven sachets will set you back £1.75, which is the same price as the Nescafé Gold Aero Golden Honeycomb Mocha sachets.

Hundreds of chocolate lovers flocked to the comments to tell their friends about the launch, with many saying they 'needed' to get their hands on the new drinks. "I've wanted something like this for so long," one user raved.

Another agreed, commenting: "Oh, sounds lovely! I hope I see it in Asda soon." A third added: "I'm not a fan of coffee but I'd buy this." While a fourth wrote: "Oh, that's a bit of me."
