One of winter’s best indulgences is that perfect, steamy mug of hot chocolate topped with a giant dollop of whipped cream. Though the Savannah area isn’t exactly known for its snowy days, that doesn’t mean you can’t find a hot chocolate so delicious, you’d be willing to burn your tongue by gulping it down before it’s cool enough to sip.

Here are a few places where you can find this delightful seasonal treat.

Chocolate Martini Bar
