What happens if you pair a pop megastar with a viral hot chocolate?
The dessert shop Glace by Noglu on the Upper East Side has answered that question.
It created the $10 hot chocolate that seemingly took over TikTok feeds in December. Now, it has partnered with Britney Spears to create a new hot chocolate drink called "The Britney Brûlée."
It's a twist on the store's famous hot chocolate, which features a signature marshmallow fluff. Spears' namesake hot chocolate also includes espresso and a scoop of chantilly, and is topped off with a caramelized sugar disk with the letter "B" on it.
In a press release from Glace, Spears said she "can't wait" for New Yorkers to try the concoction.
New Yorkers can try this dessert-in-a-cup for $14.
According to Glace, 20% of each sale will go to the nonprofit organization The Trevor Project, which provides mental health resources to LGBTQ+ youth.
Customers can buy "The Britney Brûlée" starting Wednesday through Sunday. Glace is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
