November 09, 2004: "A Chocolatey Twist to Coffee Breaks"

Treat yourself to Swiss Miss and get chocolate high in an instant.

Swiss Miss is the ideal “upper” when you’re down, tired or just in need of a sugar boost because of certain chemicals found in chocolate that trigger the “happy center” in your brain. According to the Chocolate Information Center, chocolate contains very little caffeine compared to coffee but it has the right dose of the stimulating chemical theobromine to keep you on your toes.

More importantly, chocolate is also good for the heart. Though it’s not often perceived as a healthy drink, studies show that the right amount of chocolate in your diet will do your heart good. Chocolate contains high levels of catechins – powerful antioxidants that lower the risk of heart disease. Researchers at Cornwell University have shown that hot chocolate contains more antioxidants per cup than a similar serving of red wine or tea and is a healthier choice. So by incorporating a reasonable serving of chocolate in your diet, you’re actually doing your heart a favor.

And what better way to enjoy chocolate than sipping a hot mug of Swiss Miss? Made with a rich blend of dark European cocoas that give you the exquisite chocolate flavor you love, Swiss Miss is a welcome break from coffee. Choose from four chocolatey variants – Original Milk Chocolate, Rich Chocolate, Milk Chocolate with Marshmallows and Sugar Free and experience Pure Bliss. So take a break from coffee. Hug a mug of Swiss Miss today and enjoy luscious chocolate goodness in a snap.
