But luckily, to combat the frigid weather, in addition to all of your suppressed seasonal depression, comes National Hot Chocolate Day. That's right — we get to celebrate the sweetest sip out there on Jan. 31, and luckily, a number of restaurants, coffee shops, and brands are offering deals and discounts to help us celebrate on the cheap. 

So for anyone seeking out National Hot Chocolate deals to warm your insides and soak all your troubles away, stay tuned — I'm choc-o full of them. 

Those based in Pittsburgh, Penn. will be able to take advantage of Milk Shake Factory's BOGO deal: buy-one-get-one free hot chocolate drinks all day long. The chain is inviting customers to mix and match any and all signature hot chocolates, hot chocolate floats, or hot chocolate shakes. 

For something a little stronger, Las Vegas residents who are 21-and-up can head to El Dorado Cantina — the Mexican restaurant is offering customers $12 Xocolatl Cocktails, which feature Mexican Chocolate, Licor 43, Vodka, and an agave chocolate rim... so cheers to that.

BIGGBY Coffee is inviting its customers to get innovative — according to a press release, the coffee chain is letting customers construct the hot chocolate drink of their dreams. Between fruity flavoring, whipped cream, marshmallows, salty caramel, and even cinnamon syrup, there are so many ways to make your hot cocoa ~your own.~

Despite this cold winter weather, Stan's Donuts and Coffee is keeping Chi-town warm by doling out free 12-ounce hot chocolates with any purchase. Pair it with a jelly donut and you're golden.
