Hello @lordtimoty,
I understand you like the cooler months if you get a pretty decent amount of sunlight throughout the year and if you have a definite change of season. In the UK, summertime does not necessarily mean that we will have a week of sunshine. Sometimes those days are far and few in between.
There's just something super comforting about a cup of hot chocolate:)
I don't have it often, but when I do, I particularly like to have it topped with marshmallows😋
Wishing you a lovely Sunday evening:)
