National Hot Cocoa Day is a day when restaurants offer the popular drink for free or cheap.
National Hot Cocoa Day celebrates the popular cold-weather drink with deals from a bunch of national restaurants — such as cheap or free cups of hot cocoa at popular coffee chains like Starbucks, Pret a Manger, and McDonald's, as well as online promotions from retailers like Keurig and Ghirardelli offering discounts on hot cocoa purchases.
National Hot Cocoa Day happens every year on Dec. 13.
National Hot Cocoa Day takes place every year on Dec. 13, and in 2024, it takes place on a Friday. The Dec. 13 date holds no special significance, but we’re guessing the mid-December date was picked because colder weather months are prime time for drinking hot cocoa.
